Definity got sweat and pant. Based on strava, most of my rides average between 27-29km/h, whether it's an hour or a few hours. Lol. Maybe my next short ride I try to average 30.

Is looking "pro" a factor for u guys? I think i am moving to that direction.

Given limited resource, which should i do first? Service my 9mths old mtb, buy a MET helmet to replace aleoca one, or change to cleat system? (Looks ugly with running shoes)

Where can i possibly test cleats before buying? Will significantly add more weights to my already heavy mtb?

I don't want to look "pro". I just want to "ride in style". :D

Actually how to choose the clipless peddles and cleat shoes for my mob? I ride 70% on pcn, 15 on pavement, 10 on road, 5 off road trail.

Is spd xt best value for money? How about shoes? Very lost. Budget die die cannot exceed 400. Am hoping 250 to 320, possible?
