  1. Pretty sure they can be returned
  2. Thanks for the replies So to put it into perspective 1. The flats are not true flats just those ones that come standard with bike 2. I am total beginner still trying to balance properly on bike and impulsively bought the shoes thinking they may work as my trainers were too uncomfortable 3. Whether in going to clipless or not im not sure as I said I still trying to balance on my bike lol The question is thus do I A: keep the shoes thinking maybe clipless one day B: return them C: change to the other pair which gives both options
  3. I mean these
  4. Are these shoes hard enough some people saying it's not stiff enough Stiffness level 4

  8. Hey Guys So not sure if i made a mistake, beginner here! So i have been riding with my nike training shoes and they were not comfy so i went out and bought a pair of Specialized entry level MTB shoes The question is can i use these MTB shoes on my Flats, or did i just waste money I don't want to get into the whole debate clip less or not and personally i don't know wether or not i will go the clip less route(time will tell) But for now do I ride with the MTB shoes on my flats or return them before its too late
