So one in advance this is my first SPD pedal and therefore can not compare to other pedals but make for me as a beginner, I must say that I am close to two weeks very pleased with the purchase. Since one of various accidents related to SPD pedals especially with beginners always read that you stop at stop forgets disengage from the pedals and thus falls including wheel me is so far not happened not because I disengaged myself always on time but if they have been adjusted to the lightest level (the pedal has 24 steps for setting) easily comes out and thanks to the supplied cleats SM-SH56 who the Multi Release that you also drag upwards can opt out of the pedals and not just side to me is just one or the other accident was spared during sudden stop, even pulling a light is possible on lightest setting without which one of the pedals slip that brings when accelerating or in slopes to quite a bit of performance only with tear jerking it happens that one out disengages the pedals as on the stronger settings looks I can not say yet.
Even the people who sometimes fast with the bicycle without special SPD shoes shoes driving wish is that even with these pedals you could tell a little the SPD recording on the feet but I drive about 4 km in order to work and it is not uncomfortable doing well have a thinner sole shoes is no problem with it.
