I switched back to flat pedals this Fall/Winter/Spring in SW BC. Wearing the 5.10 TrailCross GTX had really increased my ride frequency. I've alternated between the Freerider Pro VCS and find the TrailCross sole to be better for pedalling; feels like a firmer pedalling platform and a slightly narrower sole whereas the FPs get the go ahead for gravity rides. TrailCross GTX needs to go to the lacing system of the TrailCross Pro of a BOA/velcro and offer a clip-in version for the next generation.
Both Leatt and 5.10 need to offer a BOA version of their waterproof shoes.
