Review on Versatile Venzo Platform Pedals: Clipless And Dual Function For Mountain, Road, And Trekking Bikes With Shimano SPD Compatibility by Eric Trask

Over-all I'd give these pedals 4 stars. 5 would be reserved for more expensive pedals perhaps. These were for my ICE recumbent trike that gets more miles for errands or short day rides so platform worked most of the time. I have been using platform touring pedals for the last 700 miles & my feet would sometimes drop too close to the ground. I wasn't planning to change my cleats until I'd put some miles on these pedals and had some difficulty locking in and out (may be due to worn cleats). But after setting the tension loose & giving the pedals some miles, it's much easier in & out. It's not as quick and easy compared to my much more expensive Shimano's but then the Shimano cost more than 2x as much (and have no platform for regular shoes). My only complaint is almost my own making, the pedals are a bit too narrow for any multi-mile rides. Great for short trips once arrived at a destination tho'. There are wider pedals but they will cost much more. Maybe next year.I am satisfied with these pedals. They are inexpensive and perform well.
