What a fad. Platforms with those long set-screw allen bolts to grip into your 5Ten faddish shoes. You will end up with holes in the front of your lower legs from those long spikes.
Try best of both worlds. Short spikes, relatively large platform, SPD on the other side for when you get the long stretch of road.
