OverHyped
"Bought the clip pedals to replace my Shimano XTR PD-M9120. Platform support is unnoticeably different, so are the pins which I do not feel their support, though it is a bit easier to pedal unclipped. The worst thing is the force needed to clip in, even with the cleat spacers it is much more difficult to clip in. I'm just waiting for them to soften up, after 3-4 rides I do feel it’s getting somewhat easier so I'm going to give them some time, otherwise I'll just swap back my XTR's."
