I've had trouble getting my Mallet DH pedals to work with 5:10 Kestrels.
I quite fancy theย Giro Terraduro shoes.
Has anyone had any experience of usingย them with the Mallets ?
Any other recommendations for Mallet compatible shoes for Trail riding?
I had problems with spesh 2fo and mallets (no matter how far I screwed the pins in they prevented me from unclipping), but found kestrels work fine, I also tried the terraduro for a while, they worked but were not the right shape for my foot.
Currently if you like the shoes, I would be more tempted to try the new saint clipless downhill pedals before changing the shoes.
Currently using these 2fo's

No issues after I wound the pins in a little
I'm using the Shimano AM9 (cheap from Start Fitness) and they seem to work well.
