Cycling Shoes 'Lacing Options'
I need a new pair of cycling shoes because the 'lacing' on both pairs that I own have failed.
1) Pair #1 has those plastic wratchet-type things and the left shoe will no longer hold
2) Pair #2 has metal 'laces' and a single twisty thing (at the back of the heel) that you turn to tighten (and pull it out to release). This is complicated by a typical case of arthritis in my 70 year old hands, but I really have trouble releasing the left side and really have trouble tightening up the right side.
So I have pretty much decided to go the 'traditional laces' (as in shoe laces) that are occasionally available. Comments or thoughts on that decision?
Thanks.
