What pedals do you use? I use Speedplay X5's. Never tried anything else though.

Loving the Speedplay Zeroes. Just wish they were easier to walk in. Putting on the cleat covers isn't hard, but it's an annoying distraction.

Yeah last week my tire got shredded and I had to walk about a quarter mile back to my car. Definitely very painful. Even with the cleat covers. I'm considering getting mountain bike shoes for the walking comfort.

Look PP206 and Look PP166 currently.
Used to run Shimano M324s (platform on one side, SPD on the other). Loved those. The SPD connector hangs facing towards you which is great for more serious riding.

I just put my Shimano 6620's on and rode them for the first time today. So far, I am loving them. I didn't think I would be able to tell the difference from my 6610's but the wider platform does make a difference.

Look A5.1's, some crappy Performance/Nashbar Look-compatibles, and I think an older pair of PP-396's (the ones with adjustable float).

I started on Look Keo and have recently switched to Time RXS. I prefer the float on the Time to the Look's and I like the fact that if I miss the initial clip in that my foot stays on the pedal.

There's always a tie between Look and Shimano, for some reason. I remember this exact poll made a few months ago with about the same results.

I got my first clipless pedals last year. Speedplay since it is supposed to be good if you have knees that are prone to problems. I've been happy with them.
