Reviews over the

Shimano PD-EH500

Excellent item. Can be used with cleats or as flat pedals. Perfect for commute and weekend rides. No issue of slipping.

Pros & Cons

Always been concerned about using SPD's as Im a gravel/road cyclist and to be honest, take the odd silly risk. coupled with several mates falling off and bruising it was a hard decision. Lockdown has changed this as doing a lot of rolling road, this has given me a chance to try and practice, but to be honest the settings and ease of this pedal makes me wonder why I never tried before - set up release to ping with little twist and then tweak as you get used to it. Great pedal.

Pros & Cons

Ordered the pedals and was slightly nervous as I’d never used Mantel before. Brilliant service and prices. Will definitely use again

These pedals are high quality as with all shimano and make good transition pedals to spd or you can leave your bike open for either clip in or normal shoe riding

Pros & Cons

I am extremely pleased with these pedals ever since fitting them on my gravel bike. They are fairly light and are balanced very well so they do not swing round to one side each time you unclip. The SPD side works very well as to be expected with most Shimano SPD pedals. There is a large range of adjustment and the release mechanism is reliable. The platform side is a good size, and the 16 screw-in pins provide more than enough grip when riding with non-cleated shoes. Couldn't recommend these more. I would recommend the upgrade over the PDA530 pedals if you want a bit more grip on the platform sides too.

Pros & Cons

Leaving this review based on the speedy delivery alone as I have not set up these pedals yet but feel very well made. Great gunmetal color. Not super light but that doesn't bother me feel like that will last. Speedy delivery to the UK on the third working day. We will definitely be ordering again for future parts and accessories.

Pros & Cons

I now have 3 sets of these pedals for my bikes. They are so straightforward to use and I love the double sided aspect so I can use them to pop to the shops if needed. This is the first time I have used Mantel. The product range is very good, the price is unbeatable and the service and delivery is again exceptional. I would use again without hesitation.

Pros & Cons

Great quality and design. Well made and looks good. SPD works well as expected. The flat side is good for limited time pedalling but it's a bit small and doesn't grip as well as a dedicated big MTB flat pedal, but that is to be expected. If you alternate on a ride between road and forest trails etc then this is the best option out there.

Pros & Cons

Lovely pedals, great product and fast delivery

I was a bit hesitant about dual pedals and not sure if these were right for a Mtb. Having fitted them and tried the with both spd and flat shoes I would highly recommend them. Spd locks in solid and releases easily enough and the flat side has loads of grip. I also thought it would be a pain having to constantly flip the pedal round the right way but that doesn't seem to be the case, it seems to be the right way most of the time.

Pros & Cons

Fantastic product at a great price with truly exemplary service. Fab stuff.

Pros & Cons

We’ll made pedals, as you would expect and great service from Mantel.

Really good set of pedals with cleats included. A good way of getting used to pedals with cleats. Good price and service. Thanks

Great all round pedal. Easy to assemble and fit. Also3easy to adjust clip in tension. This pedal offers best of both worlds with mountain bike micro spd clip in or flat side with raise grub screws for trainers. To be honest I bought these for my new grail bike as already have them on my old mountain bike and road bike.

Pros & Cons

Great pedals but when wearing flat shoes they are a bit too narrow for those with Yeti feet i;e me. When riding with clips though this isn't an issue. All in all great pedals and glad I bought them.

Pros & Cons

These pedals are, for me, exactly what I needed for my Gravel bike, I like the option to clip in or not when the surface changes

Pros & Cons

I bought these pedals for my partner who is keen to progress to using cleats but she doesn't want to lose the ability to hop on her bike just wearing trainers. Having SPD on one side and a flat but grippy surface on the other then these pedals offer the best of both worlds. The pedals are weight biased so they naturally sit with the SPD side upwards and are easily flipped over when wearing non-bike shoes.

Pros & Cons

Love the A530s but they're lethal in the wet. The studs on the EH500 solve that problem and make these the perfect all-round pedal if you use your bike for a variety of activites. They're not particularly heavy but if Shimano want to make a lightweight version, they can have my money!

Very good both service and quality product ...

Pros & Cons

Have a feeling of quality and dependability that you know will just keep on working.

Pros & Cons

Better than the previous generation Shimano dual sided pedals. Really easy to clip/unclip. Recommended.

This pedal is great for touring bikes, bike-packers and commuters. Jump on your bike and go, one side grips any shoe you happen to be wearing when you run out the door to nip down the shops to “get yer messages”. Slam your foot down on the studded side and it’s blast off time... even in your slippers! Wattage bazooka to the bakery

Pros & Cons

Pedals are great, light and easy to engage. The flats are much improved over the old model, with proper screw studs supplied which grip really well in wet conditions. While I don't care much for appearance, be aware that predictably the grey colour paint starts to come off after, literally, the first ride.
