I knew they had more expensive versions, butdidn't realize that the release process was part of that price difference. I mostly wanted something I could mount semi toe clips on.
tds - somewhat typical for you, you'll make a statement like that but not say what you're using instead. If you have no intent to be helpful, why reply at all? Do you just like to generate noise?
I run the Promenades (with Power Grips) on my Reach, my Titanium 700c 2 speed, and my Airnimal ... I've used them since they were introduced on Dahons going back 10 years .. they originally came with black clips (which had little ears) and were indeed easier to get off.. then came the yellow ones .. more of a PIA, but there should be ample room to easily get them on and off .. if not, run a pedal washer or two until you get enough clearance..
I think what tds meant was he tossed his and hasn't had his pedals come off.. one of my bikes has clips, the other doesn't .. I had a pedal come off in 2006 without the clips, but I wasn't 100% sure if I had engaged the quick-release fully.. there were a lot of posts pro and con on the Dahon board concerning clips for the MKS EZY system.. then along came the Superior EZY series, which did not have the clips .. I also run MKS EZY clip-less pedals on my same bikes when I feel like clipping in..
