I have just made the switch to nike poggio's + look cleats, had a few hair raising moments getting used to them and wouldnt say im completely there yet.
After a few days use my opinion is that there are things i already love about this way of cycling but a few things im unsure of, id say my current position is that when city riding (ie stop start/traffic lights) there is not as much between being cleated and not being as i expected, both have good and bad points.
but this is opinion after three days and may change, as my gripes at the mo are finding click when restarting at lights and worried about unclipping for sudden stop and at certain odd turnings. All of which i may get used to.
As im in similar position to you just a little further down the line ill send you a pm in a week or two with final verdict.
