Would something like this http://www.treefortbikes.com/product...m-Pedals,.html ever be fashionable enough to consider?

I like the power transfer. I also like the ability to use my hamstrings for a little extra oomph when my quads start to tire, or for hills, etc. And I like not having to think about keeping my feet on the pedals. Most platforms don't have enough grip for my liking. I refuse to use toe cages. They seem dangerous to me.

I do agree with you that it can be expensive and frustrating, though!
