Does anyone ride these Crank brothers pedals racing? 260 grams $60 and I see they have a decent adapter plate, 3 hole to their 2 hole cleat.

I’ve not ridden, let alone raced, the Candy, but a previous incarnation, the no-longer-made Quattro.
The Quattro was a favorite for a long time for all of the reasons mentioned, plus it was really easy to get in & out of. These were used for the 2008 & 2009 seasons (including Coeur d’Alene in 2009) to decent results (not in Coeur d’Alene, but that had naught to do with the pedals) and with no issues clipping in reliably or unclipping unexpectedly. Ultimately, the Quattro was replaced because my shop told me the cleats were no longer available. I don’t believe the Candy was yet available, or, in any event, had my interest, so I ditched Crank Brothers altogether.
