Large, very grippy and sturdy
Ideal - wide and long so you get loads of grip, very strong and typical Shimano excellent build quality. They are supplied with two sets of little spacers like washers that you can put under the spike posts to reduce the height of the spikes. We're not all cycling through 3 feet deep mud in the winter in flat shoes so the ability to reduce the height of the spikes is good, less damage to my walking shoes. But if you are cycling through 3 feet deep mud these are also probably the pedals for you ! :)

Great pedal, but heavy.
Well made pedal with good bearings as you'd expect from Shimano. The only downside is the weight, but I am used to SPD pedals. I've bought 2 sets of these for my boys' bikes and they appreciate the large platform format and great grip for their shoes. Excellent build quality ensures trouble-free maintenance. If you were competing then these are probably not for you due to the weight, but if you just want a sturdy, reliable and smooth running pedal with great grip even for muddy shoes then these are fantastic VFM.

Excellent
Great quality pedals at a reasonable price that are better than what most bikes are shipped with these days. Very sturdy and had them rub the ground / curb a few times with minimal after effect. They are not the lightest of weight you can buy - but only if you have hang ups over just an extra 250g for pedal weight. If so, then you will want to pay more for a higher range / cost pedal. So all round and value for money, they are an easy 5 stars.

At this price point you can't go wrong.
Even with the spacers in these pedals hold my feet perfectly, no sliding at all, however I do fear the day those studs smash through my skin and impact my shin bones, it's a risk we all take though, send it. Build quality from Shimano is legendary, expect the same here, as for durability I'll update in a couple of months.

Not worth the current asking price, heavy, slow and large,
I was surprised when I took these pedals out the box, They are heavy and not suitable for all riders. They do feel very sold, however I would not like to ride on these all day as the weight they add is substantial. The pedals also have a very large footprint, again which can be a blessing and a curse, however depending on your riding style, coupled with the additional weight, these could really cause issues for many riders. The pins on the pedals also come very low, which requires you to remove the spacers on all the pins. This takes a long time and is a severe oversight from shimano. I’d like to see these brought up to more modern standards and easier ways to adjust etc. Overall they are ok, but I believe they are not worth the current price. There are much better pedals for much less money available here on amazon, so they have a lot of competition and they need to adjust their price to reflect that.

Good quality, robust heavy duty pedal
A known quantity for me. Black suits my second bike. The pedals are heavy duty quality with a good large footbed area. Not the lightest pedals at all but fit for downhill and general MTB use. These are not a super lightweight pedal. You need to spend much more for that.

Ich wollte meine 0815 Pedale mit etwas höherwertigen Shimano Pedalen austauschen, in einer preiswerten Klasse bin ich über diese Pedale gestolpert, auch wenn einige Rezensionen unterschiedlich ausgefallen sind. Ich selber habe die Pedale seit über 1500KM im Einsatz und sie funktionieren noch so wie am ersten Tag. Es quietscht und knackst nichts. Die Pedale kommen bereits gut gefettet an und haben am Lager auch eine dickere Fettschicht, diese ist bei mir nach wie vor noch etwas vorhanden (trotz Regen/Schmutz/Waschen des Fahrrades) und läuft nicht aus oder ähnliches. Die Pedale haben sich in der Zwischenzeit auch nicht verbogen und hinterlassen keine Geräusche - der Lauf ist angenehm und man "tritt gerne in die Pedale". Optisch sehen die Pedale auch super aus und auf Wunsch kann man StVO konforme Reflektoren nachrüsten. Das keine Reflektoren von Haus aus eingebaut sind zeigt auch, dass diese Pedale normalerweise nicht für den Alltag im Straßenverkehr sind.. das beweisen auch die Spikes. Man hat extrem guten halt auf den Pedalen, diese beißen sich richtig in die Schuhe fest und man kann kaum von den Pedalen rutschen. Da ich diese Pedale für jedes Gelände nutze - also auch im Alltag - würde ich dringend empfehlen, die mitgelieferten Distanzringe zu benutzen - es besteht sonst tatsächlich Verletzungsgefahr, wenn man nicht aufpasst und ist leider auch schnell passiert. Bei mir waren 2 "Schichten" an Distanzringen dabei, man kann sie also zweistufig einfahren - ich nutze derzeit nur die erste Lage, da diese für den Alltag und im Gelände einen sicheren Halt bieten. Alles in allem eine klare Kaufempfehlung von mir, lediglich mit den Schrauben/Spikes würde ich aufpassen und mindestens die erste Lage einsetzen. Wer die Pedale sowieso nur für Offroad nutzen möchte und das maximale an Grip rausholen will, kann die Pedale auch gut ohne die Distanzringe fahren.. das bin ich die ersten Monate auch.

街乗りクロスバイクに使用しています。他社の同等製品が安いので悩みましたが、買って正解。 ロードバイクで片面SPDのPD-EH500を使用したとき、フラット面の凹面カーブと滑り止めピンがスニーカーにジャストフィットしたので、同じ凹面カーブと滑り止めピンを両面ペダルを探してました。本製品は両面ともPD-EH500のフラット面と同等で、凹面カーブと滑り止めピンがスニーカーに絶妙にフィットし、使い勝手抜群です。 信頼のシマノ製品で耐久性も抜群なので、安い製品をいくつも使うよりも、少々高くても本製品を使い続ける方が、得だし愛着も湧くし、やっぱ、買って正解ですね。

Erg veel grip en ze zien er mooi uit. De standaard inbusjes heb ik vervangen voor de iets kleinere variant, deze krijg je er extra bij geleverd. Ik ben er blij mee.
