Review on ๐Ÿšฒ SHIMANO PD-M530 MTB Pedals by Noah Lewis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

So far, so good. Bought to complement my Shimano CT500 shoes

So far so good. Bought these to complement my Shimano CT500 shoes. It took maybe 10 minutes to master clipping and clipping. Once inside, your shoes will stay in, even in the loosest fit. I've always been a little nervous about clipless pedals and still use trap pedals with toe clips, but after 15 minutes on the road they felt great. and secure on the climbs and seemed to make me perform better (but that could be a placebo effect). The only odd thing I noticed was that the shoe seemed to move from side to side even though the spikes were attached very tightly to the shoe. I assumed the cleats/pedals would hold the shoes securely in place. Obviously that's the infamous 6 or 4 degrees of lift, but you get used to it.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Protection
