I bought a pair of these for less than 80 quid three years ago. Time still have them on the website but barely anyone stocks them anymore and those that do charge over 100 quid for a pair. What's going on here?

because the XC4's are essentially the same bar a few gramms and some adjustment that no-one uses ? and are under £50..

What something you bought in the past is more expensive now? How unusual...

Love mine, two sets on MTB & CX. I've used the adjustment to tighten up my engagement on the MTB. I brought mine from eBay in VGC for around £50 a pair.

Iainc is right, they all weight basically the same - the £35 XC2 weigh less than 20g more than XC8.

I struggled to see the value in the anything above the xc4s when I switched from Shimano earlier this year.

Now Time cleats... there is some poor value for money!

I bought the Mavic versions (Crossride SL) the other month when my wife wanted to start using cleats so gave her my old platform Times.

Seem ok about £60.
