So I decided to start with the cheapest option first, and ordered some Bontrager MTB Comp SPD’s.  
Arrived this morning, so got them swapped over.

Popped them in the NeoBike for a quick test, and all seems to track OK. Sadly I had just finished the morning run, so legs were too shot to do any consistent power efforts. But from the quick effort I did, they seem pretty darn spot on.

When put together they feel fine, no play on the axles, all buttoned up nicely and no movement, and they still spin freely.
