XT Pedal, bomb proof.

It�s exactly what you�d expect from Shimano. The spd pedal holds up to all sorts of abuse.

Thank you for your feedback.

classic Shimano XT performance

the 8100 SPD pedals perform well, release consistently & shed mud/crud - and yet somehow they can take rock hits, corners and still keep working

Thank you for your feedback.

Best bang for your buck

Shimano XT pedals are the best deal for your money and they last forever. Don't waste your money on xtr.

Thank you for your feedback.

Another excellent pedal from Shimano

Bought these for my new gravel bike. I was curious if I would see any difference from the PD-M540 I usually use and am quite satisfied with. They perform very well as expected but can't say I notice any improvement over the 540s. If you're a weight freak, go ahead and spend the extra $, you won't be disappointed. I don't do the type of riding where I could tell if there is enhanced mud shedding.

Thank you for your feedback.

They just work!

bought these for my new gravel bike and going from road pedals to gravel I knew I wanted a double sided clip. I watch a lot of youtube cyclist and gravel pro's and notice these pedals on their bikes, and these were not promoted as a paid endorsement- that tells me they just work well- and they do. I never need to look down when clipping in and double sided is so functional. I have about 350 miles on them now and have never have a problem with mud or dirt.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great Performance

Smooth operation on my gravel race bike. Easy to clip in and out and only nominally heavier than the XTR version. No experience with mud here in the high desert of New Mexico but work fine in our dusty conditions. Highly recommend.

Thank you for your feedback.

Can't go wrong.

Using on my gravel bike with no complaints. Engages easily now with my gravel shoes (was a little tricky using an SPD cleat on a road shoe).

Thank you for your feedback.

Shimano XT pedals are the best at what they do

Bomb proof, fairly light weight and now a little wider - what's not to like! Especially at BikeTiresDirect pricing.

Solid pedals

Can't ever really go wrong with Shimano. Good pedal for the price, of course not as light as XTR but a definite upgrade for anyone looking for a solid XC pedal. Have had no issues with clipping in or out, they work great.

My work horse pedals

The xt pedals have been my choice since I started clipping in. I use them on my mtb and gravel bike. Great value, very durable and easy to maintain. I actually gifted my old set to my NEPHEW for his first set. This new set is almost identical to all my others.

Thank you for your feedback.

Gravel Pedal

Upgraded from a lower level Shimano MTB/gravel pedal for my gravel bike. Put several hundred miles on these for gravel rides, and they work great. Seem very well made.

Great pedals for my new (to me) mountain bike

I've been riding road bikes for the last 40 years and have been clipped in one way or another. I have used toe clips and straps, one-sided clipless pedals and, for the last 10 years, two-sided pedals. I'm fairly new to mountain biking, but couldn't imagine not being clipped in. I chose these XT pedals after reading many reviews and talking to many friends that have ridden mountain bikes for a long time. I like the two-sided entry. The pedals are easy to engage, provide a solid connection to the bike, and stay fairly clean of dirt and debris. Great pedals!

Thank you for your feedback.

This is the pedal I use on all my bikes - Mountain, gravel and fat bike. Flawless. Easy to get in an out. Not much weight difference from the more expensive model.

Great pedals, Terrific reliability

I switched to Shimano mountain pedals for road riding (from Speedplay) about 15 years ago and have never looked back. I like the ease of entry and exit, the walkability of the recessed cleat and the absolutely flawless performance of these pedals over thousands of miles. I have at least two pairs with over 15,000 miles of use and they work as well today as when new. I also like the release tension adjustment - I use mine on the least amount of tension and they've never released on their own. (I bought this new pair to put on a bike that was sharing pedals with another bike, so each would have its own.) Also, excellent price from Bike Tires Direct.

Thank you for your feedback.
