$30.00 | | Purchased At: | cahinreactioncycles.co.uk | | Strengths: | Light, nice finnish, seem to work really well. | | Weaknesses: | None found yet | | Similar Products Used: | None | | Bike Setup: | Getting better as my bank balance is getting smaller | | Bottom Line: | I've never used clipless before as I was worried about being able to get out of them. I took the plunge and got these because they were cheap and seemed well regarded. I was very pleased that after fitting them they feel exacly right and I've had no trouble at all clipping in or out, which has got to be OK for a first ever use of clipless. I can't find anything bad to say about them and I'd have been happy with them if I'd paid double (glad I didn't though :) | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

Date Reviewed: September 7, 2000 | | Duration Product Used: | Tested or demo'ed only | | Price Paid: |
$40.00 | | Strengths: | Inexpensive, leightweight | | Weaknesses: | Compare it with a Shimano pedal. | | Similar Products Used: | VP 313, Shimano PD-M747 | | Bike Setup: | XTR/XT/LX, Judy xc '99 w. TAC, RockShox seatpost, Conti Explorer Pro | | Bottom Line: | My first impression was that they are ok for the price. After I mounted them and made my first test ride I noticed a 1mm vertical play at one side of the right pedal which could not be adjusted. So they were useless for me but I think, if they work, they are a good product. Fortunately I could give them back and buy a set of Shimano PD-M747. | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

Date Reviewed: August 31, 2000 | | Favorite Trail: | hmm | | Duration Product Used: | Less than 1 month | | Purchased At: | mail order | | Strengths: | Lightweight, durable | | Weaknesses: | none | | Similar Products Used: | first SPDs | | Bike Setup: | DBR Zetec Comp | | Bottom Line: | Excellent pedals altough my first SPD's after years of pedal clips I really liked the adjustment. I can set them really light and never have any unexpected exits. They have taken a good bit of punishing during the last three weeks in the Alps including mud, dust submersion in a river etc. Still work prefectly | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

I do BC black diamonds every week and they are as smooth as the day I bought them with no maintenance. Release on one side of left pedal is sometimes tight | | Overall Rating: |

I have had these pedals for a year and a half, I have used them with 3 different bikes currently with a norco vps 2, and they havent let me down yet. These pedals are lighter than shimano's 747s but the performance isn't quite as good. They do what they are supost to do which is hold your foot in and they last more than 2 seasons. I am pleased to give these pedals a 4 | | Overall Rating: |
