I’d love to meet an experienced cyclist / mountain biker who hasn’t fallen over at some point because their clip-in pedal didn’t release as planned or, worse yet, they caught the edge pins of their pedal on the inside of their super-sticky-soled flat pedal shoe when they didn’t quite step off all the way.
I’d bet those manoeuvres have taken out more hangers and derailleurs than any combination of falling off skinnies or getting hung up or smoking them on tight trails.
