Pedals

Jamie said:

This is just a quick question .What pedal do you all use .I have frogs and spd's .I like the
frog's better but have heard that the new cleat's by frog are not that great .Any body had any
troubles with the new cleat's.I was thinking of going to just 1 pedal type but am a little scared
of the new cleats.thanks .

I love my egg beaters. MUCH better then SPDs. But, I haven't tried frogs. The egg beaters hold when
you want them to and twist out easily. With SPDs, I always had problems getting the spring tension
adjusted so that I didn't occasionally yank out in tough terrain, but could still twist out when I
wanted to. Not a problem with the egg beaters. Even though they're not adjustable! Easy click-in;
easy twist-out; holds unless you twist. And, they're light!

If you do decide to try egg beaters, don't get last year's left-overs (selling for 1/2 price most
places). This year they improved the bearings a lot! The old ones need regular rebuilding
(probably why Crank Bros sells the rebuild kit for only $15). When my current set wears out, I'll
probably look into the Look knock-off to compare how their bearings are holding-up compared to the
new Crank Bros.

Same here. Two years old now, about 2500 miles of VA mountains singletrack. I haven't touched a
thing on them yet, other than putting on some new cleats yesterday. They hold securely but
release dependably. YMMV.
