sorry to bump ye olde thread with what is probably a n00b question, but i'm interested in whether people think that double toe straps are worth the hipster tax that is slapped on them. I'm on single straps but the buggers keep loosening every time i so much as do a wee skip-stop. Now, this could mean that a) my particular straps are shite; b) my straps are not shite, but are broken; or c) single straps just don't hold very well.
(also I'm currently running 52/16 at the moment, which probably doesn't help :D )
So i'm wondering if double straps might be a genuine response to this problem or not...
Any thoughts?
