Review: Super pedals for my hybrid - I bought Pearl iZUMi Men's All-Road Cycling Shoe recently and wanted a set of dual platform/spd clip pedals. I tried a XLC Alloy MTB / Trekking Pedal, Black that were cheap and peformed poorly so the Shimano is my 2nd go-around. These are much higher quality despite being relatively low cost. Certainly they feel a little heavy but for my bike, a Trek Valencia hybrid, it suits me just fine--I am not out to win any races and bike for recreation and fitness. I am new to spd clips so i adjusted the clip side for low clamping. That makes these easy to engage and easy to disengage. In fact, I went to stop one time and forgot to disengage... As I went to put my foot down, it was obviously still clipped so the bike started to tip--but was able to unclamp at the last second to avoid a fall. The pedal itself is rather compact which I like. The platform side has good teeth on the outside for grip. The clip side does not have teeth so did not interfere with the soles of my shoes with recessed cleat. Performance: Very easy to clip in. Just put my feet roughly over the area of the clips and start pedaling--they pretty much clip in and give you some feedback that you are in. When set for loose clamping, there is some wiggle room for the shoes but it has never accidently released and when needed, is easy to disengage. Going clipped has really upped my pedalling to another level. Particularly with undulating tracks--it really helps to have a solid connection to the pedals when trying to pick up speed on the downhill or pedalling hard uphill (including standing pedalling). Huge difference. Still it is nice to have the option of not wearing your bike shoes. The tradeoff is that I do have to look down and sometimes spin the pedal around so the clip faces up when going clipped--worth it!!! Overall, I would not recommend anything cheaper than this pedal for starters. It is not worth the cost savings. Unless you are a racer or have a high-end bike that you paid $$$ for lightweight contruction, the weight of these pedals is a non-issue and the quality is very good for the price.
Review: Great way to transition to SPD - Needed to replace the stock pedals on my Trek 7.2FX hybrid, and got these. Was immediately taken by the desire to try out some SPD shoes, and it is a great way to bike. I picked up a pair of Shimano RT82 recessed cleat shoes, and I love the combo. The pedals themselves feel very well built, though on the heavy side. If you care about weight, Shimano also makes a lighter hybrid SPD/platform pedal. Installation (and removal of the old pedals) is simple. Pedals use an open 15mm wrench (I don't have one, but 5/8" worked well enough for me), and just twist off (the left pedal is left hand thread, so needs clockwise to loosen and counter clockwise to tighten). Once the old ones are off, the new ones just go on in reverse (it is a good idea to put some bike grease on the threads first, to help avoid creaking, and to make it easier to get them off again if you need to). Hand tighten first to make sure you avoid cross threading, and be careful to install on the right side, they are labeled L and R. I think they work very well once they are on. The pedal spindles are greased with a thick lube that while not thick enough to have any noticeable effect on pedaling difficulty, but it means that they will not simply flop over to the heavier side so if the wrong side is up, a half turn of the cranks will correct it. The platform side is your standard bike pedal. It has teeth to help with traction, but won't work well with smooth soled shoes. If you accidentally put a shoe down on the clip side, you'll feel it, but the clip sturdy enough to take that abuse, and doesn't stick out so far that you'll be unable to pedal on it, just switch to the right side at the first opportunity (flip the pedal with your toe, or take your foot off and pedal a half turn with the other foot to get the right side up.) The SPD is where it gets interesting. I hadn't used any type of cleated shoe before, but it is a big improvement. The pedals come with the cleats to install, so put them where they are comfortable on the shoe (you may need to adjust a few times, or you can buy shoes from your local bike shop, and they should be able to size and adjust properly for you). You can also adjust the clip tension with a hex key. I set mine very low since I hadn't used these, and was biking in Manhattan; good to be able to get out of the binding quickly if something goes poorly. The SPD bindings release if you twist out your ankles or pull up in back while keeping your toe down (this can happen in normal pedaling, but even with low tension, only happens to me if my chain skips or something, not ideal, but not a big issue either.) This sounds difficult to do without practice, but is actually very easy, I've never gotten stuck in the pedal, even in panicked moments when cabbies do something stupid. Getting into the pedal is also pretty easy after a few tries. if you miss it, it works well enough to just pedal around and try again. With my shoes, it is also not hard to pedal on the platform side for a bit if you know you are going to be in and out a lot (like in heavy traffic, or lots of stop lights). Being clicked in is very helpful. I find that most of the time, I'm not using the pull up motion, but it is great to have for long uphill stretches or sprinting where you want that extra power. All in all, I highly recommend these unless you are concerned about the weight, in which case there are better options (and of course most who care about weight would want to jettison the platform side all together).

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Which side of the pedal naturally comes to the top?**
A: if you roll your foot from front to rear, the PLATFORM is up.  If you push/drag your foot from rear to front, you get the CLEAT.  So, you get to pick with these.  Fresh out of the box, they don't naturally 'drop', but once you get 10-15 miles on them... the 'rear' of the pedal drops so that you get the proper action.  If it won't... you need to have them re-lubed, overhauled (e.g. new balls), and the seals inspected.  Also, there is a special tool for these to get the bearing pre-load correct.  If you do not have the tool (shimano part# for the tool is on the datasheet for these pedals at shimano.com), do not disassemble them--You will not be able to re-assemble them.  (if you do disassemble them, try your best to get them back 'together' and head to your LBS, they may preload and tighten them for you, or order the tool for you.)

**Q: Is there space to attach velcro straps/cages? I know this isn't necessary, but I am looking for versatility.**
A: YES of course! I have clipless on one side and old rat traps or clips on the other side for those days when I am lazy and dont want to change shoes for a quick 10 minuite fast spin.

**Q: Can I just wear normal shoes with these? Is this a good choice for a road bike?**
A: Yes with these pedals you can wear street shoes or spd cleats. I agree w/ the other person that if you're concerned about weight then these are wrong for you.

**Q: What is the thread/axel size?**
A: 9/16"-20 is the standard for bicycle pedal threads, left hand thread on the left side to prevent backing out under precession.  These follow that convention.Old one-piece steel cranks sometimes have 1/2"-20 threads.Most pedals use 15mm open end wrenches to install.  These do, and also take a 6mm allen wrench (although the recess looks a little shallow for putting a lot of torque into it, it is still nice for an on-road tightening, if necessary.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good pedals, for the money
*by S***D on September 5, 2011*

I bought these to replace a set of pedals with bad bearings (they went out after almost 10 years of service), and I figured I'd get myself halfway into the clipless pedals club, so these appeared to be a decent compromise. They're a little bit heavy, which in my world just means that they're really sturdy and solidly built, but I suppose there might be people out there who are trying to keep their bike weight down for those races, and these wouldn't be a great bet for that. Installation was easy, and I used these for about a month before getting shoes that would allow me to clip in, experiencing very little annoyance at having to occasionally flip the pedals to get onto the platform side. Now that I have installed the included clips on my new shoes, I noticed that one of the little brackets included with the hardware doesn't allow the screw heads to sit flush, meaning that they would scrape pretty heavily on the ground if I were to walk around a lot. I'm trying to track down a replacement set of those things, but I do find it curious that one bracket is fine and the other isn't. Maybe this is how they keep the price down. Getting the clip side up has been a little bit more challenging than it was to get the platform side up, so I'm glad I can ride more-or-less comfortably with either side up, at least for short distances. I haven't taken the clipless setup on a long ride yet, but I'm hoping this will cure some foot numbness that I'd been experiencing on 20 mile rides. If not, I suppose I'll be hunting down a new seat next month! Edit: 5 years later, still pretty happy with these. I ride with clipless shoes about half the time, and the other half I ride with street shoes. Sure, that sounds weird, but due to weird traditions these are clipless pedals and so require clipless shoes if you want to clip in. Yep. So I'm still pretty happy with these, as they're versatile and reasonably well-sealed inexpensive pedals. If they eventually give out, I'll probably try to replace them with something similar, because sometimes I like to be clipped in, and sometimes I don't. They are a bit heavy, so if weight is a concern, you might want to check around for something less rugged. But the flip side is that these are really very tough and sturdy pedals, so they can handle quite a lot of abuse.
