Customer Reviews Linda Meyer Said: Pedals are exactly as promised ( Oct. 12th 2009 )I am not an avid cyclist but do ride 15-20 miles on weekends. I wanted to try shoe clips and pedals but didn't want to spend too much. After doing a lot of research, I chose these Shimano pedals. I was a little nervous at first, but withing 5 minutes, felt like I had always used them. Really like the platform on the reverse when not wearing my bike shoes. Now my husband wants to get a set.P. Hoffman Said: Perfect for touring/hybrid bike ( Aug. 17th 2009 )I use these on my Trek 7000, they are great for hybrids and mountain bikes. They are pretty simple to get in and out of, and are perfect if you want a set of pedals that you can flip over when you don't want to go all out with the cycling shoes (casual rides to the grocery store and what not). I've had mine for a month, they were ready to go straight out of the box. If you want some casual clipless pedals that will make your work-out riding a bit more effective, these are what you're looking for.Daniel Haden Said: Works great! Matches with LX. Made to Last. ( Jul. 30th 2009 )They're not as light as the cheaper pedals of this type; however, the spd attachment is top quality and doesn't break. The outer area of the pedal is a very strong steel. The pedal's alloy core is colored exactly like the LX group, and as that is a trekking / touring group with the strongest materials and this is a trekking / touring pedal that has the same coloring and theme, then I believe that these are LX trekking pedals. As such, that means they work perfectly, all the time, and they're designed to last at least as long as a bike or two. Worthy of note is that these are a bit easier to access the platform side, albeit the methodology isn't typical. Instead of flipping it or "scuffing" with your toe, you can just pedal "around" and set your foot right down on it when it's up. This is a bit faster than typical, so its possibly less distracting in city traffic. Also, the SPD attachment is quite strong, so if you happen to mash down with a sneaker, there won't be any damage to the pedal. This is the only "combo pedal" that I've been able to flip while going up a steep hill. As for the weight, this might be the one SPD pedal that makes your knees feel better instead of worse. The somewhat extra weight adds a beneficial flywheel effect to the pedals which can make it easier to spin a faster cadence. That's quite good for training yourself to do well. It also matches up with the intent of the trekking / touring group in facilitating an easier, lasting, approach to a long distance ride.H. kilby Said: No complaints ( Mar. 26th 2009 )I don't have to change shoes just for a ride to the store. I have 2 sets. Nice on my recumbent as I don't want to be clipped in when starting. hDr. Gonzo Said: Platform or SPD? Have your cake and eat (most of) it. ( Dec. 13th 2008 )Essentially, this is a good, versatile pedal for those who ride mostly with regular shoes with occasional SPD use. It is a bit inconvenient (with regular shoes) that when you step off on from one foot and said foot is welcomed unceremoniously by the SPD side as your second foot grabs the crank. But if you briefly stop the crank and lift the foot, the SPD side rotates via gravity to the bottom and you simply replace that foot on the now-up facing platform side. The SPD access of the M324 won't be confused with that of a set of Crank Bros. Eggbeaters, it's actually not too difficult to use. I rarely ride with SPD cleats, but am perfectly willing to live with the aforementioned slight compromise in spite of this. Quality is nice.« Back |
