According to the product specialist

Pros
These pedals have a superb price/quality ratio.
When you are clipped into these pedals the fit is tighter than that of the RS500. This makes these pedals more suitable for experienced cyclists.
The larger contact surface has improved pedalling efficiency.
A steel plate on the resin body increases durability.
Thanks to its low spring tension this pedal is very suitable for novice cyclists who want easy to unclip pedals.
The low spring tension makes it easy to clip in and out of the pedal.
The large surface area facilitates the smooth transfer of power and reduces the risk getting sore feet.
This pedal is comfortable and geared to long distance cycling.
This pedal offers efficient power transmission during cycling.
The conical bearing has good durability.
The steel inserts reduce surface wear.
Cons
The pedals have a high weight.
The bearings in these pedals are less durable than those in higher-priced pedals.
The low spring tension makes this pedal less suited for competitions and performance-oriented cycling, as they are not secure enough during a full sprint. This should not be a problem during tour rides however.
This pedal is relatively heavy.
This pedal has a composite body and is therefore less stiff and heavier than the Look Keo 2 Max carbon.
This pedal is more focused on endurance than performance, and therefore less suitable for the competition rider.
