"Really pleased with these. They provide great support and my calves are not nearly as knotted up after a (cycle) ride. I was on the cusp sizing wise but these worked out just right for me. The styling is an acquired taste if you're not a sporty type but I'm more than happy with the results."
Pros: Good Fit, High Quality, Lightweight

"i bought this as it looks like a bargain and ...it is.
Initially i though the name meant it was winter gear to give you heat but it's actually designed to keep you COOL IN THE HEAT and it does a great job. Wore this out on a ride in the sunshine and it was like a little fan getting rid of heat.
Very comfortable to wear and great compression.
Very lightweight & packable and I'd say ideal if you are travelling light."

"Great torque wrench for all those essential stem, seat posts, etc. when you need accurate tension. Neat little kit in a sturdy box. Comes with a short extension bar but I don't like using these on a torque wrench personally.
Defitely recommended. A neat kit with all the essentials and easy to use. Seems good quality too."
Pros: Adjustable, Great Value, Versatile

Davebo's Answers
Value for money dual sided SPD pedal, a favorite XC mountain bike pedal. Super-compact and lightweight design for a multitude of cycling uses. Sealed cartridge bearing spindle keeps out water and mud for a smooth action, and makes for a durable pedal.
Do these pedals have any float?
Yes. I have dodgy knees and set the release quite loose. Plenty of float for me.

Lightweight and supportive pedal with high impact resin cage for greater foot stability.
Are the cleats included, or are they to be ordered seperately
Yes, there's a little bag of cleats in the box. You can get spare cleats separately too.
