Patrick - I understand what you mean about those pedals. I myself didn't like the campus pedals, not so much for the 'rat-trap'-like platform side, but for ease (rather un-ease) of being able to clip in and out of the SPD side. Unlike your experience, I like and now use the Shimano A530's on several road bikes. The one and only complaint I have with them is that the "platform" side, which has a few raised bumps and ridges that are supposed to give the street shoe traction, in fact do a rather poor job of it - they're very slick. I've been toying with the idea of getting some adhesive-backed traction material to cover that side of the pedal to see if it will improve things.
