Pretty disappointing considering the excitement everyone had. On the LOOK/XPEDO cleat aspect, I’ve gotten used to them LONG ago. Sure the supplied XPEDO cleats are a bit slick on some surfaces, which could be remedied by using LOOK GRIP cleats, but I’ll take more careful walking (rarely have to walk on surfaces where they are not grippy) over potential issues with cleats coming out during pedaling.
In general, I’ve got no burning desire to go back to SL cleats, I don’t find their advantages or any disadvantages of the XPEDO apparent or relevant for my use.
