Quality Product at a Good Price
Smooth rotation. Good grip with normal shoes due to supplied Allen screws. The tension for engaging the SPD pedals is set quite loosely at the factory, so it can be adjusted as desired.

Fine pedals
Couple of years cycling without clickers because I didn't want my feet fixed. With climbing and speed you limit that anyway. With these clickers you are quickly attached and detached. So used to it and notice that cycling is much easier.

Just right.
Pedals are about the same color as my Koga F3 as if it was originally equipped that way.

Good pedals if you use your bike for different purposes.
In use on (cross) hybrid bike to replace Shimano M324. Better grip of pins on running shoes but pedals a bit narrow for size 44.5. Easy click in and out due to lighter spring in combination with multi-release plates. For city/road use fine but for gravel/MTB use the black plates. These have less problems with unwanted clicks.

Very comfortable pedals!
Pedals are very good, both the regular side and the click side are perceived as good and easy!

Great pedals
These pedals work well, with the clip section sitting facing the back of the bike for easy clipping in. Great as it means I don’t have to keep changing pedals depending on what I’m using the bike for.

Convenient to ride without clickers as well
Convenient that they can be used with clickers as well as normal shoes. Easy to click in and out by the way.

An excellent compromise that gives you the best of both worlds.
I have six bikes, (typical bloke) and all are equiped with Shimano A530 pedals so you can ride clipped or unclipped. However, when off road on either of my cross bikes or my E MTB, the A530 does not give safe un clipped grip, particularly in the wet. These Shimano PD-EH500 are a complete game changer and the un clipped grip is massively improved, even in the wet. There are times off road when I feel safer un clipped but still want to feel secure on the pedal platform and these pedals with screw in pins are a great improvement. I'm planning to improve the un clipped grip with new shoes that have a flatter sole to make better contact with the pins when funds (read Wife) allow but I do feel much safer with these pedals so far. Finally, the price from Mantel and the speed of delivery were first class. Very happy customer guys.

Versatile pedal for multi purpose riding
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.

Great dual use pedal
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.

Great on both sides but expecting colour to wear off quickly

Great but don't choose for the colour!
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.
