    I need to get some more SPD’s and has anybody used these yet?

    Is the cage a worthwhile addition?

    Thanks for any assistance

    Cheers

    I looked at them but couldn’t really see the point, so I got the 980’s instead.

    I reckon it will depend on what sort of shoe you are using. With a softer sole and a bit of tread, the cage would give some welcome support on longer days out. With a very stiff sole, you’ll hardly notice the difference.

    They look very nice in the flesh – almost enough to tempt me away from the CB Candys.

    I think they looks amazing! I am waiting on some to replace my M646a but they aren’t due for a while…

    Druid that’s a very good point. I normally used Sidi Dominators which have stiffish soles so may not get any benefit from the platform

    My LBS has a set in and they do look v good

    My xc race type shoes barely touch the cage of my DX spd pedals I would think these are next to pointless. 540’s FTW.

    Are they for people who want the XTR bling without having SPD problems pedals?

    What’s the right answer on these? I’ve got some on back order so I’d like to know. I was just thinking it would be a bit more pedal to stand on for those times when you can’t quite clip in.
