Pretty pricey at $21 (old cleats WITH cleat covers are $14). Still a bargin compared to other places though!

Wow. B*tchin'.
My office has glossy concrete floors, so I have to treat it like im walking over an oil slick till I can get in and put my cleat covers on.
Makes me mad I just bought new cleats for when I wear these ones out. I guess itll give some time for everyone else to try them and report back I guess.

I like the grip cleats, I just ordered some from PBK myself. They are pricey but PBK's was the best price I found, their cost on the pedals are nice too.
I haven't had the cleats long enough to see if I get good wear out of them or not, I try not to walk in them much anyway, but they do feel so much better when you are walking in them.

I've had them for a while and I don't like how they feel clipping in. I can't wait until I wear down the rubber grips.

Fill out the email notification at PBK when they are out of stock of something. So far it usually only a day or two till they have something back in stock. I like the gray ones myself, the red is just too much float at least it was in the older looks I haven't gone back to it since I switched to Keo's.
I don't see any difference clipping in with the grips or the previous Keo cleat, at least no more than it ever did when you put new look cleats on of any type.

It'd be interesting to see how fast or slow they wear down compared to the originals.
Hopefully people will post up their experiences in the next couple of months with them. Or when my cleats wear down I can justify a set of them to the wife! Doh!

I have had them since August. A seller on ebay had a bunch of the new 2008 Keo Carbon pedals and the rubber cleats came with them. The rubber pads have worn a lot but still have not fallen off. I used Shimano Ultegra pedals before so I can't compare old Keo to new Keo. These cleats are not as easy to clip in as Shimano.
