Got some on the way but just read about the axle bolt coming undone, bearings being shite etc!
Any real world user experiences?

Mine were fine, just not very grippy is all- didn't like the shape of the platform.

spd's are the weapon of choice.

Mine are fine - less one of the end caps has come off, but hasn't affected anything.

Not as concave as most flats. Make sure you screw the pins right through or you feel the axle shell a bit too much. I got them because I kept smashing bits off V12s (low BB and shocking pedalling). They are cheap, thin profile and the nylon platform is tough and light if slightly flexible. No sign of the bearings giving out yet. Yeah they are nice for the £ IMO.

Convex, cheap, light, long lasting, not that grippy / not that slippy.

If grip is that important for you then look elsewhere. Good balance of grip, cost and weight for me.

i like mine.

they've got a funny shape - they feel terrible in 'normal' trainers, they feel ace when i'm wearing shimano am40's.

(i don't know how that works either)

they're just grippy enough - not too much, not too little.

no problems...

i'd buy them again.

I've has some on my bike for a couple of weeks now and so far no problems at all. I think they're going to retain their new look longer than post as they're made out of some sort of resin so paint cant get chipped off etc. I'd certainly recommend them!
