Amen. I've been using the 600s for a few months now, and I absolutely love them. What I really like is the fact that I can leave the straps fairly loose, and still get great retention. I tighten straps only for climbing, or when I really want to hammer. $60 for cleats (Business Cycles) is pretty lame, though. Anybody know of a cheaper source?
Now if I could just find some nice LONG leather straps to replace the super-cheap Performance-brand nylon crap I'm using. I got some black Cristophes, but they were way too short for my size 12 feet. Any recommendations?
