I have a pair of MKS EZY pedals. When you use the plastic security clip they stay on during even hard riding, but the clip is a real pain in the butt if you want to pull the pedals off the bike more than a couple times a week. The clips are also easy to loose.

I tried riding without the clips so I could remove the pedals frequently and easily, but my shoe would cause the QR mechanism to activate which wasn't much fun.

I went back to the stock BF folding pedals for day to day use and kept the MKS pedals for traveling/touring use where less frequent remove would be needed.
