I figured out why I was gett'n sudden pop-offs; it was caused by me wiggling my feet more to get a snug fit into my PowerStraps, in combo w/harder pedaling.
With my Mu I didn't pedal as hard (more upright), nor wiggle me feets to get a snug fit as much as w/the Swift.
I'm assuming you weren't using the plastic clips supplied with the EZY's?? .. if they are installed, and the pedals are attached correctly to the couplers, I can't see them coming off no matter how hard you pedal or wiggle your feet.. I've got the same set up on a couple of pedal sets ( with P/G's) and over the last 3 years have never experienced an unexpected pedal release.. however, there have been reports of pedals coming off when the plastic clips were left off..
