I like 'em and have been using them for about 12 years. I can't say that I can
climb any better because of them though. I was [censored] going uphill before, and I still
am.

Well, it would explain the speed increase,

I decided to try them, having used Look for years. I do like the Speedplay
and it does seem that I get a more efficient pedal stroke. Maybe that's
because the shoe is closer to the spindle. I may give the Time RSX or Keo a
try on my other bike when the present Looks wear out. I still suck on
hills.

I like the completely free rotational float. The small amount of spring tension
on the Times I had seemed to irritate my knees. I also like the low stack height,
and I plan to modify my Carnac shoes to eliminate the adapter plate, making it even
lower. The two sided entry is also pretty nice.

Do they have testosterone patches on the cleats?

Morning had broken. I found a rather battered tube of Araldite
resin in the bottom of the toolbag.

I have the Zero. Tried the X but didn't like the free float. I'm using
Specialized shoes which are a perfect match for the pedals. The entry is
indeed sweet.

I think there's an optional footbed that holds a patch under the ball of the
foot.

Try stacking the Speedplays with either testosterone or blood.

They gave me tendonistis in the ankle. But I've bee more than happy with
the new Time pedals.

I got some Specialized myself a few months back and I'll never go back to
Sidi, most comfortable shoe I've ridden in.

Presumably you must have found a work around the podium girl mini skirts
then.

You use scrotal patches as cleat wedges ? Presumably having a ball
size imbalance must be the result of the LiveDrunk(tm) lifestyle.

Just shows. I have Specialized Body Geometry shoes and also (lots of)
SIDIs. I /hate/ the Specialized - I'm not sure whose body has that
geometry but it's nothing like mine. I love my SIDIs.
