I like sandals on moderate or fairly "flat" rides with my dual surface
Shimano pedals. However I would not attempt my longer , faster paced rides
with monster climbs- out of saddle -without my SPD shoes and quality
insoles. I have injured my feet in the past by attempting it.
My LL. Bean Explorer sandals also work great for warm weather riding.

Willy Nelson's guitar was once in mint condition. It is now thrashed,
sounds great and is a priceless

purposes. Just find an expert who knows fit and if you can, adjust it
so you don't injure your joints.

I am also a motorcyclist and sometimes go the ironic humor route with

Selle Anatomica designer has some very good adjustment guidelines to
follow-
Basically, saddle should sit so when seated and crank parallel with
ground-edge of knee cap is directly above pedal spindle.
With this position, stem can be adjusted/ changed to put tip of your
nose approx.
over the center
Denatured alcohol. It will dissolve some of the shellac as well but
you can then reapply.

Can't beat that price. The makers have been doing what they do for a

I just put an IRD on my Phil "Rivy" hubs and I am very happy with it.

Regarding fit- If you can get a copy of the Selle Anatomica saddle co.
guidelines it will help.
It is very detailed and addresses most issues if your frame is close
to correct size.
Takes a little patience and perhaps a few component switches but it is
well worth it.
