Can't get outta my Beaters
When I go to dismount my shoe stays connected until the heel is twisted WAY out.
I'm new to Beaters. At first the shoes were coming out easier than I could imagine. Going in easy, too. I wouldn't feel either change yet the pedal was grabbing. But now it's not letting go. I'm close to crashing sometimes now. Especially especially when coming in slow to just get off my bike.
Also i'm finding it sketchy to get into the things -- they're a small target. I don't look down or anything but they're just small.
I'm curious about what'll happen if I ever want to coast in on my instep...
