On the 1 sided A600, I really like them on my road bike because they are minimal, don't weigh a lot for the cost, and I rarely unclip. It's a road bike- I just don't do much in and out. Riding into/out of town I'll hit a few lights each way, so it's probably unclipping maybe 8 times in a 90-200min ride.
I've never owned SL pedals so my view may be skewed on all this too. Just haven't found a need/desire.
If coming to this as a bike that will only be ridden with cycling shoes, some dual sided XT 8100 pedals would probably be what I would choose. They weigh a couple ounces more than the A600s, but the dual clip would be beneficial.
