Dear all,
I’m looking to change my current SPD hybrid pedals with either the Shimano A600 or the CrankBros Eggbeater/Candy 3.
I use my bike for commuting, which means stopping at lights and STOPs rather often, and for medium-length bike rides whenever I can. I use Mavic Razor shoes, which have nice stiff soles.
I like CrankBros Eggbeater’s four-way entry system and generous float, but I read some really nasty reviews here and there, which mainly complain about the pedal breaking down easily and the poor durability of the brass cleats. I am a little concerned about that because I do walk a fair amount in my cycling shoes and the SPD cleats have coped rather well with that.
On the other hand, Shimano A600 pedals are “one-way†entry only but they are durable.
Anybody has experience with both?
