Great combo pedals

I use these on my road bike. I ride through town to get to the bike trails. These allow me to ride unclipped as I navigate through stop signs and lights and traffic. I have around 500 miles on these and they have held up fine. Easy to adjust.

Thank you for your feedback.

Functional two sided pedal

I use these on my cyclocross bike so I can clip in for some serious riding or just hop on it in street shoes for a quick trip in the neighborhood. I find the SPD side to be reliable and easy to clip into and the platform side offers a solid surface to use for regular shoes. I also installed them on my trainer so I can jump on it when I have to stay indoors.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great dual purpose pedal!

Installed these on a bike to have a choice of clipping in or using regular shoes. This works great. Treads on the pedals surface do not allow shoes to slide, something I thought would be an issue, and the pedal is slightly longer and narrower than stock making it more comfortable to stand on. Overall, good design and quality. Pedals will probably outlast the bike and I have no regrets.

Thank you for your feedback.

Pedals for Neighborhood Cross bike

I bought these pedals for a bike I use around town and on trails. Great for casual riding with street shoes, and more technical clipless trail riding. They are easy to flip, and fairly lightweight. Im not sure about durability as Ive only logged a few hundred miles on this bike. Im pleased with my choice so far.

Thank you for your feedback.

The pedals look great and work great. Love the flexibility of not having to use my clipless shoes when touring

Everything they should be

Needed pedals for a touring commuter bike. Previously I've run the PD-M324 but these are little less aggressive but still grip well on the non-clip-in side Happy with the purchase.

Thank you for your feedback.

Most versatile SPD pedal you can buy

Standard SPD reliability on one side, grippy, svelte platform for walking shoes on the other. If you need pedals that can do it all, look no further.

Thank you for your feedback.

I wanted these to work

I built up a bike this year and ordered these pedals. on my first test ride the pedals begin to make a clicking noise on each crank stroke at the top of the arch. after 10 miles it was really loud. I got back and made adjustments to any thing that looked like it could be connected with the noise. Test ride 2 was even worse. After emailing btd and getting no response I went out and obtained a pair of pdm8000 pedals (from a different source) noise went away new pedals felt great. very disappointed in this model of pedal.

Thank you for your feedback.

Nice pedals

Nice pedals but I have nothing to compare to since these are my first pair of clip-ons I like that you can still use regular shoes on the other side it's helpful when you're trying to clip in after you stop and get going you can pedal on the opposite side

Thank you for your feedback.

Great pedals!

These are great pedals that also allow for a quick ride with normal shoes. Clipping in/out is super easy!

Great Pedals

Work great on my endurance road bike. Perfect when need to unclip, yet keep pedalling, like when coming to a crazy intersection. Not too heavy. Also work great when riding the boardwalk at the shore wearing sneakers.

The best of two worlds. Love that you can clip in for the long rides and use the flats for short rides.

Nice commuter pedals

I use these pedals on my daily commuter and they work great. The platform can become a little slippery when wet but overall if you pay attention, you will be fine. The SPD works as expected.

Good pedal for winter riding

I ordered these pedals to ride on snow and ice using my studded tires. By not having to clip in, I have felt more secure using these pedal on difficult ice. When there isnt any ice or th ice is smooth I can clip in and ride with more efficiency. I am very satisfied with these pedals.
