What are your thoughts on clipless? (lemmy.world)

My trusty flat Five Tens are at the end of their life and I'm in need of new shoes. I ride SPD with my gravel bike and think my current clipless shoes for that are amazing.

That gets me to think maybe I should just ditch my flat pedals on mtb and get clipless. But I'm a little hesitant because of added risk of falling.

If you ride clipless on mtb or especially if you ride it both gravel and mtb, do you have any tips or thoughts to share?

This is pretty good idea, thank you! What pedals are you using? Do you you find that clipless pedals grip enough on the flat side?

I'm using Shimano M324 SPD, and for my usage I can use the flat side with clipless and normal shoes without any particular issue, but I'm a beginner :)
