Well I had a different model, but the thing I always hated about the 1 sided pedals like those was getting clipped back in. I always had to look down to see which side was up, then half the time I had to flip it over with my foot....and you're always clipping in at the worst possible time to have this distraction. You're at an intersection where your eyes should be watching cars, traffic, and pedestrians, not screwing around with your pedals.

On the other hand many other people have said they liked them, but that was my experience.

I haven't used them myself, but I always thought these looked like a better compromise -


Really I'm not being a jerk for mentioning after the OP bought them, lol, REI has a great return policy and he could still go back and exchange them! :-)
