Probably the best value pedals.,
August 13, 2011 This review is from: Shimano 105 PD-5700 Road Bike Pedals (Black) (Sports)
I have these pedals on Specialized Roubaix, and they are simply great.
If you are really into reducing weight, you may want to get Ultegra, Dura-Ace, or Speedplay pedals.
But if you're just starting the cleat pedals, this would be a great choice.
It took me 5 minutes to learn how to get in & out of it.
I keep the binding tension to the minimum, but it hasn't been disengaged accidentally during the 30mph riding.
The pedals come with quite a bit of grease in between the silvery part and black part, and these grease collect quite a bit of dirt within a week.
Since they are black, usual wear and tear on the side scratches up the clear coat and they become quite noticeable after some time.

Nice Pedals,
November 28, 2011 Updated from Shimano spd pedals and these are a huge improvement for road biking. The platform is much more stable and the release tension feels strong enough for a good sprint while loose enough to let go in a hurry if you need it to. Also much easier to walk on the cleats.

Great Entry Level Clipless,
January 18, 2012 This review is from: Shimano 105 PD-5700 Road Bike Pedals (Black) (Sports)
Purchased this as my first clipless system. The Shimano 105 is perfect for the daily ride, especially with Amazon's low price. Compared to local bike shops, you save ~$40 by purchasing it through Amazon. The Shimano 105 clipless system is great because it allows you to adjust the tension, making it easy to clip and unclip.
