  1. I've been using time atacs for many years now and have never had any complaints as they are spot on for muddy UK riding. But my latest pair are close to shagged, and instead of going for the straight swap like normal my eye has been attracted to the egg beater pedals. The retention system looks like the times. So have any of you guys out there used the egg beaters and if so what do you think of them and how do they rate compared to the times?

    Cheers

  2. I run Eggbeaters on my XC bike, fast clip in and out, never had an accidental unclipping, light, and easy/cheap to rebuild to like new yearly.

  3. I'd reccomend eggbeaters. I use them for 3 months. Did test it in xtreme conditions - snow, ice, mud. Absolutely no problems. You simply don't have to worry about your pedals any more. My friends use it for 2 years in racing (marathons, 2xTransAlp Chellange) and don't want any other pedals (stainless version) Only had to change the cleats (few times) and bearings (once as far as i know). They are much lighter than Time, and 'poor' setup abilities aren't a problem. You can change retention angle by swapping cleats (L/R). I use bigger float and have no problems, my knees enjoy it very much. I only had to change my quick get-off habit as once i had problem remowing my foot. Now i clip out before i jump off the bike at speed ;-). Did.t have to do this on prev ones.

    Cheers
