The engagement to the pedals is so effortless it is almost like the system is hard wired to your brain. Without much more than a foot step worth of pressure you engage into the pedal. I have had no feet flying of the pedals and lading on the top tube, every get away from the light has been instantly successful and every disengagement has been easy.
Another unique thing i have discovered was the forced return to centre, and the fact that I have been pedaling wrong my whole life. My left foot I assumed has been angled right, seems like I have been riding at the end of every pedals angular float for years. The return to centre spring mechanism in the pedals forces you back to your optimal pedaling position (when that has been discovered through a professional fit), and this feature has helped me correct that position on my own. I always wondered why I had knee pain on my good knee...
All I have to say is these are truly amazing. I know people will complain about the cleat life (iclic2 cleats will be much better) but I will happily purchase new cleats a little sooner than previous KEO pedals for the easy of use, optimal pedaling and amazing ride quality of these pedals.
