Time Road Pedals - Why The Changes?
I have always use Time clipless road pedals and have had several sets
of them. My old ones still work fine, but I am getting a pair of Xens as a replacement due to an error. Why have they kept changing the pedals so much? Original = Impact = RX = Xen. Has anyone out there put some miles/kilos on the Xens? If so, may I have some feedback? Thanks. |

Wow. Years ago when I would check out this group very frequently, there used to be lots of lively commentary and sage advice. It has really degenerated. Except for a few stalwarts, the whole thing have become a discouraging mix of mudslinging and nonstop ads. Very sad.... |

Maybe there is no one out there who has put many miles on Xens. I still have a couple sets of the old sets Time pedals. I like them and use them about 10,000 miles/year without seeing any reason to change. I clean the contact areas and replace the cleats as needed. It seems to takes 3 years to wear out the metal part of the cleat enough to require the change. I serviced the bearings on both sets once in 10 years. I am not going to change until I need to. -- daveornee |

We can basically ride all year around here in British Columbia (I guess I should thank my lucky stars). You make a good point about the Xens being so new. The distributors lost my old pedals and are kindly replacing them with the Xens - hope they last as long as my old Time pedals. Thanks. |
