On some of these clipless/platform pedals, like the Campus above, I am wondering if your shoe contacts the platform cage when you are clipped in. The SPD plate looks like it is floating above the cage, especially the front of the pedal. That pedal looks more like it has a SPD side, where your clipless shoe would not contact anything but the SPD, and a platform side.



Wherein the Crank Brothers Mallet pedals looks more like it is designed to have substantial contact area with the shoe even when clipped in.
