Opsie, I did miss that... I love my SPD-SL too that's why I use them despite the relatively short commute to work (5 miles per leg) but I was indeed afraid about the "harder to catch" part which is the only reason I've been reluctant to switch to fixed from single speed. Shall I give it a try? Maybe in a parking area first :)
as u can see i have no brakes so it's fixed
spd sl is good for training
they make pedaling more effective and stimulate to train trackstand sometimes because they lil bit harder to catch ^__^
and they are not good for short rides or couriering if you walk much, in this way i'd prefer spd.
i had no problems from the first time i tried them after spd, u just need to set them right.
btw i change pedals sometimes cause my Sidi are reconstructable from spd to spdsl
