I was hoping for something that I could use with street shoes for a quick ride around the neighborhood. The egg beater part of the pedal sticks up too far for your foot to get a good purchase on the pedal. I am thinking that the pedal is great for what it is intended for, which I believe is to give your foot a little more platform while clipped in, but it is not a good pedal to get if you will not be clipping in.
Should have gotten Mallet C's... eggbeater core w/ a full platform... very comfortable in street shoes.
