Planning on trying out some clipless pedals - going to start using them for XC/AM and then, depending on how that goes, might try them out on my DH bike. Trying to decide between the M647 and the XT M785:
M647

XT M785

Leaning towards the M647 because I figure they would be better for DH, if I end up using them in the park, and I am not overly worried about the weight differential. However, if the XT M785 would also do the trick for DH then I wouldn't mind going for them either. I have some budget bontrager SPD shoes that I use on my commuter bike (and used to use for XC in Ontario) that I am going to use at first and then I may upgrade to something like the Shimano AM45 later on.
Any insight would be appreciated!
