Eggbeater was designed as an off-road pedal with superior mud-shedding capability. A commuter at best.

Eggbeater was designed as a 4 sided off-road pedal with superior mud-shedding capability. Pro Tour?....NOT. More popular among commuters than anything else.

seems like they need more legitimacy to get eggbeaters on the road

They took a MTB pedal(fragile at that) and put a big honkin' platform around it and tried to make a road pedal out of it. What it is a big clunky MTB road pedal. There are far better choices. PLUS if they continue to try to market that ridiculous wheelset of theirs, AND a BB(ISIS) that can be used on Truvative cranks ONLY(NOT FSA), they will be gone soon anyway
