Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

  • Thanks to its low spring tension this pedal is very suitable for novice cyclists who want easy to unclip pedals.
  • The low spring tension makes it easy to clip in and out of the pedal.
  • The large surface area facilitates the smooth transfer of power and reduces the risk getting sore feet.
  • The low spring tension makes this pedal less suited for competitions and performance-oriented cycling, as they are not secure enough during a full sprint. This should not be a problem during tour rides however.
  • This pedal is relatively heavy.

Price-quality a winner

- Maxx 18 October 2025

Very fast delivery. Assembly very easy. Super satisfied with the pedals as they are really firm and comfortable. I didn't put them on the firmest and now I already have to apply force to click out, it's not like there is too little click tension.

Pros & Cons

good grip
large contact surface and comfort
price-quality is top!
sturdy pedal
Slightly heavier than the ultegra variant

A great pedal for beginners and almost most of the usages for road bike riders.

- Parsa 23 July 2025

I never face problems since I bought it and the fact that is not fully metal in it bottom makes it easy to use for beginners.

Pros & Cons

Handy Design
Not hard to use
Quality
Not the best in durability

5 / 5

Very happy with it!

- JS 21 June 2025

Good value for money, fast delivery and also quick to assemble myself. For me the first click pedals as a beginner and I really like them. They are easy to use and because you can adjust the spring tension yourself, it is not scary to (learn to) cycle with them.

Pros & Cons

Also good for beginners
Easy to assemble
Good quality

Great pedals for when you're just starting out with click pedals

- Astrid 15 March 2025

Because the centre of gravity in the pedal is at the right point, you usually have it in the right position to click back in.

Pros & Cons

Clicks out easily, for when you're just starting out
Different 'positions' in how tight you sit
Large surface area
