You're a smart guy, I think you can figure it out.

oh whoops, not the rx1s. get the exas.
The Exa pedal is derived from the Royal Nuevo pedal body, and includes a special locking cleat to reduce the chance of accidental disengagement. It is best used for events against the clock (kilo, team sprint, pursuit) where the security of a positively locked cleat (mounts to common 3-hole pattern shoes) used in concert with a toe clip and strap may reduce the chance of pulling a foot at the start. Toe clips and straps are not included in the purchase price.
335 grams. Sealed bearings.

yeah they do look kinda bulky/heavy. and the cage doesn't look to be large enough or adjustable.

Fail for self-referential post without allowing someone else to notice what you did there first.

RX1=DEATH
RX1's are ONLY FOR THE TRACK. You must reach down and release a lever. Please Ridazz do not ride these on the road.
There are some manufactures that make actual clipless pedals with clips. I have seen them in asia. I believe they are Exustar or Wellgo's, I can't remember. Too much Tiawan beer.

@rbi: don't get what? i want to cop these so i can ride my fixie (right now they got spds) with regular sneakers, except i like to rock bball sneaks which are a bit wider/thicker than your typical chucks so i would like wider cages.

fyi tfunk, you will ruin your technicolor nike x retard collab dunks if you ride your brakeless "fixie" with them. keep your spds. if youre feeling ugly and not hip amongst your teenage circles, channel pollock with some house paint and have your own one off design. then youll be super hip because you will be the only one rocking that eyesore. i hope this helps.

i blew out the sidewall in my front tire on sunday and had to walk from riverside/los feliz back home. i was so pissed. if my wheel is fixed by then i might show up.

although the dunks are based off the j 1s, i doubt anyone would consider them true bball sneaks. too bad i don't own a pair of dunks nor any of those aj 3x8x11 whatever remixes. brakeless? i aint got the skillzzzz to skid; i got a dura ace caliper up front to replace those crusty bikeisland tektros i used to have. and i would give a million bucks to be a teenager again =]

these clipless cage adaptors are ~$30 on ebay. think im gonna give them a try! maybe i can ride my fixie barefoot to the beach and not worry about getting sand in my shoes.

today is my first day on a fixie and i have already discovered trackstand variations, skid hopping, and wheeling from a trackstand. am i cool yet?

clipless clips are pretty redundant, but i guess that's the purpose. it's like doubling up on condoms, haha.
