Crank Bros pedals with road shoes?

None for me. I had them before I knew any better.

I have some cheap Sette MTB shoes (I am fond of these) and Sidi Dominators I recently purchased so I mainly ride those mostly.

Maybe for Triathlons I will use the road shoes, or for use on my indoor spin bike. Haven't used them in a while though.

I now use Specializeds BG Sport MTB shoes with Crank Bros. Candy & Eggs for everything (I used to run Look pedals and road shoes). Plenty stiff for me and I can walk in them without the need of cleat covers. Worth a try.
