Cons: Weight (but who really cares about an extra 50 grams...)
Recommendation: I think this particular pedal is dirt cheap; I just got a new set from Jenson for USD $45.95. I've done about six thousand miles on Eggbeaters and about three thousand on Times. They are both good pedals but I lean toward Times. I think they are slightly easier to enter, and I don't like the fact that Eggbeater uses a bushing instead of bearings under the foot -- they just plain wear out. Also, if you bash an Eggbeater against a rock when pedaling they will usually release, which is really annoying when doing technical riding.
