I initially put them on because I kept clipping the rollers with my inner heel which was annoying and almost removed my shoe once. The improved ride was an added bonus I found.
If I was only doing a couple of miles I’d probably be happy with flats but it’s 5-6 miles at each end of the day with quite a lot of climbing on the way home.
