I remember, but not enough, another thread on another board on riders first experiences with clipless pedals. It was hilarious. At any rate I would like to say that I've used Time Atac pedals and was happy enough with them. I started out on SPD pedals where I had my baptism with clipless. I now have Eggbeater Candy pedals and I like them over the other pedals I have tried. For me, I like the smoothness of the float and how easy it is to unclip from the pedals. They are the easiest I've had, to step into.
I am of the opinion, though, that there is room for many different systems because no one system is superior to another. Each has strengths and weaknesses. Oh, and with my Candies, I have recessed cleats on my mountain bike shoes, which makes walking around all day in them comfortable. For this reason I love mountain bike shoes and the systems with recessed cleats.
