If you want to try an interim solution, there are PowerGrips.
Thanks for that, BlazingPedals. I've been using
an interim solution similar to the powergrips. While the heel cups on these keep the foot from slipping off the pedals, you can't really pull up on them effectively That's why I'm now seriously considering trying clipless. However, I don't have any place locally (Albany NY area) to shop for SPD shoes to try them on before buying. Are there good online sources to purchase from with a fair return policy? FWIW, the shoes would be used with the pedals that come standard with a Catrike Villager.
Thanks agai!
