Shimano PD-M540 SPD Pedals
5/ 5
Bartosz 22 July, 2021

Best choice for XC in wet conditions

Very durable and "long-lived" pedals for XC and gravel. You pay premium for an upgrade in terms of the pivot design and weight compared to PD-M520. The bearings are better protected from wet and snow than in M520.

Pros
  • Reliability
  • Robustness
  • very sleek
Cons
  • nothing really
