  1. Don't get me wrong, it gives me the [censored]. Shoes and cleats (and bolts)
    have been replaced (original shoes were shimanos, so I'd hope it wasn't
    them)- they still creak. They've been lubed, cleaned and re-lubed (with
    a variety of different lubes); they still creak. I'm not so silly to
    assume that all examples of this pedal will creak, but mine do, and
    that's the only experience I have with them. Took quite a while for it
    to happen though, so maybe it's atypical.

    That is a pretty good price.....does it include the cleats?? Also, what
    sort of postage rates do they charge for shipping to Oz - I have some
    relatives over there so I am wondering if it might be worth me having
    stuff
    shipped to them and then get them to post it via normal postage services.

    Thanks to everyone for the feedback.......these could be a goer.

    Yep, they come with cleats/screws/etc... As till said "Shipping fixed at
    $18.99 for any order".. which makes it really decent value when you order a
    few things.. Going 1/2s or 1/3's with others in the order will make the
    shipping even better..

    Are sure it's not your feet that are creaking?

  14. I would try it, but as candle-wax on the bits of cleat that rub on the
    pedal has stopped it, albeit temporarily, each time, it's clearly being
    caused by said rubbing. Of course, they haven't been creaking lately
    despite not waxing them. I've found that the creak only happens when I
    ride the bike, and that hasn't happened for a while. Too much work and
    other stuff. Oh well, only a couple of weeks 'til it eases up a bit.
