The Shimano Deore pedals have been a great ADDITION to my bike. According to my experience, they provide a smooth and comfortable ride, with a secure grip that keeps my feet in place. The build quality feels solid and reliable and they have held up well over time. The only downside is that they are a bit heavy, but that's a small tradeoff for the performance they offer. Overall, i highly recommend these pedals for any serious cyclist..See full review
