dalam hutan pakai sebab banyak daun pokok nak salam kat muka - clear lense (including night trail)
dekat highway pakai jugak sebab silau - polarized lense

Ic ok... do you have isu with habuk coz the last few night rides on road, I get habuk into my eyes.
*
ya. i hate more cycling in city/road because of smoke/dust
sometimes i have to breathe with mouth (well...pancit recovery after few miles lol) so thats...quite dangerous

in trail no problem
nature around us, just a bit dust should be okay
if raining season, for me must use eyewear

agreed, but please avoid 26" tyre if can
unless your frame can fit 27.5" later

shimano mt44

its recessed but still the cleats stick out

can clearly feel and hear the clang on hard surfaces.  slippery on smooth floors.

I always walk on mid-forefoot and the cleat thus positioned will contact the ground first
*
i also almost fell when walking on wet cement
because some shimano shoes (like mine M089) got very stiff sole
so less grip on slippery cement
not because the cleats although can fell it
but no problem at trail
