I have been using EB's on the road and off for >2 years. I just got some of the Quattro Road. Simply an EB with a platform. I only have about 90 miles on them and I really don't feel any difference between them and the non platform EBs. I wanted a pedal that I could use on any bike with road shoes, MTB and with biking sandals. I did have to modify my Lake MTB shoes to work with the Quattro's, my Lake road shoes work on all the EB's without modufication. So riding em' on the road will be just fine IMO.

I have the following EB's: Triple Ti, SS, Chrome, Mallets and Quattro Si
