SPD and SPD-SL are much better. Speedplay are a pain in the arse. I only use them because I'm a freak.
Come-on SPUDs are not better. You may be a "freak" but if they were better you'd use them too.. (now the old Time EQs were better but they got killed by WW culture and 3 hole shoes).

No, SPDs are much better. Their durability compared to Speedplay is off the charts. They don't need any of this care regime bullshit that Speedplay do and I can buy a whole set of SPDs for the price of one poxy cleat set for Speedplay.
I have custom drilled shoes and 2-bolt cleats don't really work unless the sole is flat enough to take them, ie. £500 custom German option and the bloke never got back to me so I use normal shoes built to take Speedplay.
hippy
