That is exactly all 3 things I also wanted to say: wellgo mg-1, check eBay, and if you have out-turned feet get some pedal extenders.

I switched from SPD to pinned platform for the same reason as OP: didn't want to deal with the hassle/cost of shopping for new SPD shoes. So happy with the switch, now I can wear whatever crappy tennis shoes I want (or sometimes even flip flops) and when I get off I can walk without scraping (I know SPDs are recessed, but the more you weigh the more rubber soles compress, and the less recessed recesses get)
