Probably the best value pedals.
By JL
I have these pedals on Specialized Roubaix, and they are simply great.If you are really into reducing weight, you may want to get Ultegra, Dura-Ace, or Speedplay pedals.But if you're just starting the cleat pedals, this would be a great choice.It took me 5 minutes to learn how to get in & out of it.I keep the binding tension to the minimum, but it hasn't been disengaged accidentally during the 30mph riding.The pedals come with quite a bit of grease in between the silvery part and black part, and these grease collect quite a bit of dirt within a week.Since they are black, usual wear and tear on the side scratches up the clear coat and they become quite noticeable after some time.

respectable pedal
By John
I like these pedals. I am a recreational rider, but tend to ride competitively with myself; while I don't need the weight reduction/quality improvement of ultegra/dura-ace I like a durable and still, quality pedal. I got them essentially free when they accidentally ended up on a floor model bike I purchased (pedals unintentionally left off cost of bike), though having ridden the base model spd-sl pedals previously, I imagine I'd be alright paying for these (especially the discounted Amazon price). I've not used ultegra/dura-ace, so I can't compare. Over the spd-sl, though, I noticed the 105's tend to spin a little more freely. They are also much more secure. The clip in/out feels stronger and more solid without having adjusted the tension on the release. I haven't had problems clipping out for stopping, nor have I had my foot release under high torque (which happened on occasion with the spd-sl). Oppositely, they are easy to get into. They have a large target zone so mounting your bike in traffic isn't very difficult, and if you're not able to lock in quickly, the pedals are large/flat enough to use as a platform pedal until you've found time to properly secure your cleat. I've pedaled through a few turns and had a one hit the ground and minus cosmetic damage, they have not been phased (mechanically). The only issue I've found with these pedals is based on personal style. They have six degrees of float, which is comfortable, but for my style of riding, I've found the mechanism which returns your foot to the neutral position (center) is a little strong. I tend to run on the pigeon-toed side of straight, and have noticed that translates to my riding position. For shorter rides this isn't a problem, of course, but for longer ones I notice some fatigue. I know that riding style needs to change (and running for that matter) so I don't tear up my legs and it's something I'll work on it since I've become extremely aware of it. But for now, if you have similar tendencies, it's worth taking note if you're on a test ride or considering the 105s.

By Matthew Schratwieser
Updated from Shimano spd pedals and these are a huge improvement for road biking. The platform is much more stable and the release tension feels strong enough for a good sprint while loose enough to let go in a hurry if you need it to. Also much easier to walk on the cleats.
