Well, honestly... I wish I had started with the SpeedPlays. Because I didn't... I spent around $200 extra on shoes and pedals that are now in my closet.

I personally have the basic SpeedPlays, I like being able to move my foot on the pedal, while still being clipped in.

If you go up to the more expensive models, above $120... I think that is when you can adjust how much play you have in the pedal.

In the end... for me... being clipped in without being able to move my foot around at all... contributed to my knee pain... because my cleat was positioned wrong.

I have also found it a lot easier to unclip in the SpeedPlays.

But in the end... it's a matter of preference... not how advanced or seasoned you are. It's all about what works for you. Unfortunately, sometimes that becomes expensive though!
