Review: Chromag's New Pilot Clipless Pedals
They are expensive, yes, but why not choose them if you want them? I have a set of XT's, they're awesome, they're good value, but I never look at them and think "phwooooaaaaarrrrrr!"
Maybe it's just me, but if the the function is 95% there of the benchmark (which it sounds like it is from Kaz's review), why not splurge a bit for something you want, even if that is only because they look cool and from a brand you like to support? I'd rather give my cash to someone like Chromag over the biggest brands out there.

Review: Chromag's New Pilot Clipless Pedals
Who cares if they're objectively not as good as Shimano? Not everyone cares about having the "best", which is fine too. Chromag is a great example with a few of their products. They not be the "best" or lightest, but they look great and will be solid.
I have a Ranger stem and Cutlass bar on my Spur and sure I could get something way lighter and "better" (sure OneUp's carbon bar would be lighter and more compliant) but I like Chromag's aesthetic and they're solidly built and I know I can rely on them :)

Review: Silt's $1,000 Carbon XC Wheels
3 years is to cover defects, but the crash replacement is free for life of the wheels. Sounds like they'll sort you out for a long time!
