Just decide if it is really worth it to you to continue pursuing it and proceed accordingly. Good luck with whichever!
Hi Grits!
I just want to give them one more chance and practice a little bit more. If I can see that they are causing me more stress than what is worth, I'll buy a good set of BMX pedals and back to platforms. I really love cycling. I'm just a little bit stubborn
