You say potat-o I say pot-A-to.

I think it is splitting hairs. I never had trouble getting in Candies, and yeah, technically you have 4 sides. I just think it's overkill and unnecessary unless you're MTBing. Maybe I see the use for XC riding, too, but not much for commuting. The lightweight of the eggbeaters is nice, even if only a few ounces.
