The Science Behind Clips | Are They Really More Efficient?
HOSTED BY: https://fatmtnbike.com
Clipless or Flat?! It's a debate as old as time... well maybe as old as the first set of clips! Regardless of how long the argument has been going on, the answer still manages to elude most. So Neil Donoghue sets out to put a stop to the bickering and decide once and for all. Neil swaps out a controlled environment for the trail to see which one is better. He will be basing his conclusion on the feeling of the pedals as well as the sciency results.
