I've just replaced my Time XS composite pedals with Shimano M-540 pedals.I love Time pedals but the Aluminum model's are kind of heavy. The composite XS was nice but the platform wore down from the pedals striking rocks after about 12 months. They performed great though.
I also used crankbrothers Candy pedals and durability was a major issue. Customer service is great and they always send me replacement part's or rebuilt the pedal free of charge. I would have bought the eggbeaters but I always had problems unintentionally unclipping over technical terrain with the Candies. Too bad, they were light and not too expensive.
So I was looking for a durable metal construction pedal with a reasonable weight that didn't cost too much. The shimano M-540 was priced well and weighed about the same as the Time XS. After a few rides I'm really liked them. Very predictable clipping in and out. I like that I can dial the spring tension up to keep from unintentionally clipping out of the pedal. Them seem well made and durable. Hopefully these will last me a few years at least. So far so good.
