PD-EH500 SPD & Flat Dual Sided Bike Pedal for Indoor Cycling & Urban Riding

Great feel to the pedals & the one side cleat & other plain is perfect for mountainous off rooad terrain. Recommend them.

I got these for my transition between road biking - where I've been using SPD pedals for years - and mountain biking where I was finding that I needed/wanted to be clipped in for some thing and unclipped for more difficult terrain. First, the pedals are top quality. They are incredibly easy to get into and unclip from. They are light and just built well overall. The flat side is not as big as a normal flat MTB pedal though so be aware of that. If this kind of pedal is what you want, you will not be disappointed. Having said that, I've switched to flat pedals on my MTB. In the end, I got tired of trying to decide whether to use the clip side or the flat side. The clip side is great for that feeling of being solidly connected to the bike but it was holding me back from tackling more and more difficult terrain. The fear of not being able to unclip if I couldn't manage a section was getting in my head and making me not try things. It's too hard to anticipate the proper side in dynamic terrain. Plus, it was too hard to find the right side if you had to start on a hill or some difficult patch. I switched to regular flat MTB pedals and have been much happier. Knowing I can get out has given me much more confidence to tackle tough sections and I've enjoyed riding them much more. Given the proper shoes, my feet stick pretty well on the pedals anyway so it's not as bad as it could be. My feet do come off every once in a while but overall, I'm glad I went flat. That's not the fault of these pedals though so I stand by my high rating.

Recently got these for a Giant CX bike, have put a lot of miles into both sides of the pedals over the last couple months, and I really like these pedals. Riding clipped with the include SH-56 cleats is great. The tension is easy to adjust +/- and at the middle setting I've chosen I don't have any issues with clipping in quickly (even in city riding where there are lots of stops) or with coming unclipped. The flat side with the included pins is pretty grippy, I ride with soft EVA foam running shoes and have no issues with my feet coming off even on some pretty rocky terrain. With that said if you're a flat shoe MTB racer these aren't the pedals for you (they're not that big a platform), but that's not who they're for anyway. My bike has a 1x SRAM Apex drivetrain meant for riding clipped in, so one thing that will kick my feet off the pedals is shifting to the smallest 1 or 2 rear cogs, but I can't really blame that on the pedals. (Maybe i need to upgrade the crankset!) Basically it a joy to pedal on either side. At first the pedals flipped over a little too easily but now they tend to mostly stay on whatever side I'm using. Riding around the city I prefer clipped just because you can leave one pedal clipped in at red lights and stops, and then take your time clipping the second foot when you take off. But, I've definitely mashed on the SPD side in flat shoes to get away at a light, and the opposite, pedaled with my cleat on the flat side. So yeah, these pedals are hybrids so they're never ideal in any one situation, but in general I don't find the pedals flipping to the "wrong" side to be annoying. Installation is easy. You do have to screw all the pins in. (If you haven't taken pedals *off* a bike before, well, I hope you have a pedal wrench. Or my method of a standard wrench + a hammer + swearing works too.) Then you can install these with either a hex key or pedal wrench. I'd recommend you use some standard waterproof grease on the threads (to keep out dirt and make it easier to get them off again).

Great option for those looking to ride and want the option to use clipless pedals

It works great! Great value!

Great quality and price.

Perfect setup for what I was looking for. I can use the clips when I go on long rides. And Just regular shoes when riding with my son around the neighborhood. Wish I realized they were dark blue instead of black due to them not matching my specialized diverge 4.

Great addition to my endurance road bike SL-6. I installed the pd t8000’s on my fFX-6 hybrid carbon bike and road 5years about 15k miles. I initially purchased another set of the pd t8000’s for my new road bike but clipped the sidewalk twice within two weeks. The endurance road bike is shorter and corners harder. I then installed these pedals. I was reluctant at first as others indicated the platform was too narrow. I have a wide foot and have no issue with these. These are great pedals and because they are narrower I have not clipped the sidewalk!

Excellent product. Easy to install. Well packaged. Delivery was supposed to be before 1pm but arrived at 3pm which ki d of messed my day up other than that it would be a 5

通勤車両で使ってます。 普通の、靴も使えるのでとても便利です。

Appena montato e provato mi sembra un gran bel pedale

Loving them so far. Handy to have the option to clip in or not. I was worried the standard pedal face would feel too small, but it’s perfect without being oversized. Might want more platform for trails, great for around town.

Superbes pédales, se monte facilement, j’apprécie le coté plat pour les balades chill avec ma fille et le coté auto pour les sorties soutenues. Elles sont fournies avec les cales pour les chaussures vtt. Elles vont à merveille sur mon Cannondale badboy2
