Eggbeaters just aren't durable enough. Plus the same issue you have with Time/Shimano you'll have with them.

The best tip I've seen is to adapt the tread of the sole of your shoe and cut out a section each side by the cleat. This stops anything getting stuck between cleat and tread which is, 9 times out of 10, the root cause of clipping in issues.

Well done on 5th too, that's a solid result against some bloody good riders.

Good enough for Helen Wyman...but she is using the £200 titanium versions. And probably gets a couple of pairs per season.

To be fair mine have been ok over a couple seasons but im probably not that hard on them.

I'd ride them all year round if I they were giving them to me. But I have to pay for them and, in my experience, they can't cope with the conditions a winter of cross in the UK throws up.
