I can clip in and out on command 95% of the time, but there's always that 5% of the time where you bomb out of a stop and your shoe slips on the clip.
Can Eggbeaters clip in "reverse"? Do you have any problems with them coming out accidentally?
Now that I have a spare pair of SIDIs sitting in the corner, I'm thinking of making the switch. Recommended?
I have used Candys for 18+ months and never unclipped accidently. They have enough float to protect your knees and I couldn't recommend them highly enough. I've also used Eggbeaters and the Candys are better.
