IMHO alot, increased comfort and better efficency of your pedal stroke. SPD's are by far the easiest things to clip in and out of so no need to worry about that IMHO.

You dont need to spend alot of money either, but look for a SPD pedal that is double sided so that you dont have to flip it over before clipping in.
