Svend: 

Thanks for the confirming pedal advice.  Lynn and I are currently using the Crank Bros Candy pedal (has a real pedal with the spring mechanism in the middle) and find them very easy to get out of, but will wait on your/Terryl's thoughts on the SF56 and then consider upgrading to those of SP540.

Point well taken regarding tire weight.  I have Mavic wheels that are UST and "thought" that my tires were also, and really wondered why they put tubes in them at the factory.  NOT, and the UST Kenda Karma's are almost 400 grams heavier than the ones I have.  That's an amazingly lot of extra weight to go tubeless.

My picture of the day.
