Strengths: Float adjustment, inside/outside setup. Larger area to power down, going up those lumps with better speed now.Weaknesses: None so far, do get the coffee caps so to not root the cleats.Bottom Line: very solid from the first ride. Hips, knees and general alignment from the saddle & below just felt more right. Exactly what I was hoping for with this product; as I've been a look Keo rider for many years. Plenty of breaking in to do for entry/exit, but ces't la vie. Hardly a drama.

Strengths: Firm, solid, integrated feeling
Cost
Two-sided entryWeaknesses: Requires more maintenance than Look/Shimano pedalsBottom Line: I just upgraded to the Zeros from the Light Action. The LAs were good but I needed something "firmer" with more of a platform to accelerate/climb on. The zeros have a very positive feel, firmer tension and I love being able to dial in the float to exactly what I (and my knees) need. I feel the Zeros really "integrate" better with the cleat to form one solid unit. The stronger I got the more I experienced hot spots with the LAs and the "spongier" they felt under my feet. The Zeros have eliminated all of that. Very good pedals.
I chose the cro-mos over the stainless as the $65 price difference didn't seem to make sense for 4gm of weight savings. I used the cro-mo LAs and experienced to rust or corosion issues.

Strengths: Double sided entry.
Adjustable float.
Good warranty service.Weaknesses: Need to regularly service them with a grease gun.
Cleats are not walkable at all.
Replacement parts are very expensive.Bottom Line: Too high maintenance for me. I used them for a few months on my commute to work.
Walking with the cleats on to my desk was too difficult, so I took them off my commuter bike. A few months later, I took them out to put them on my road bike, and discovered they didn't spin.
Luckily I had the receipt, so I could send them in for warranty repairs. Speedplay told me that I had not serviced them, and so it was technically out of warranty, but they repaired it as a courtesy.
Good thing, too, since a rebuild kit costs about as much as the retail price of the chro-moly pedals.
It was my first set or clipless pedals ever, and I assumed they didn't need regular service. Bad assumption. If you don't mind servicing your pedals regularly, these should be fine.

Strengths: Firm feel
Double-sided entry
Adjustable float
Long distance comfort
Weaknesses: A little learning curve for clipping in.Bottom Line: I am relatively new to road cycling, and these are my first clipless pedals. However, I can say that I have had no issues whatsoever with any aspect of using this system. It was easy to learn, easy to set up, and they work well even with my inexpensive Shimano SPD shoes. I have no hot spots or other comfort issues. My rides have been 30-60 miles at a 16 mph average pace.

Strengths: Solid feel, adjustable float, rebuild-able to a point, able to ride short distance with normal shoes.Weaknesses: Locating cleat on the pedal can be tricky, no adjustable tension.Bottom Line: Solid cleat. Offers a very solid feel even for rider of my size (225, 6'4"). Choose over LOOK keos for the adjustable float and the fact that you ride short distances without cycling shoes. Steep learning curve when it came to locating the cleat on the pedal for click in. However clicking out is extremely easy and takes no time to learn. Do not plan on walking anywhere over 20 feet with these cleats. If you are a beginner would recommend buying lower end shoes, ie cheap nashbar knock offs less then $40, to learn how to step in so you don't trash the bottom of a nice new carbon road shoe.
