Shimano PD-M530 SLX Pedal
Product DescriptionWhether you're stepping up your two-wheeled game and clipping into the bicycle for the first time, Shimano PD-M530 MTB SPD Pedal will connect you to your two wheeled steed for years to come. These easy to adjust pedals will take you across miles of singletrack or down the street to work. The larger, but not huge, platform is great for cross country mountain biking, with a more stable platform through rocky sections. Dual-sided entry for quick entry and exit means you won't be nancing around the trail head trying to flip your pedals over so you can clip in. The sealed cartridge bearing spindle requires minimal maintenance and provides buttery smooth action. The design of the pedal also sheds mud efficienty so you don't miss a beat after jumping obstacles in your next 'cross race. The adjustability of the cleat retention system makes it easy to get the exact tension you need for your riding style. The Shimano PD-M530 MTB SPD Pedal are compatible with two bold SPD cleats only. Cleats are included with these pedals.

Terry Date Reviewed: August 3, 2012 Strengths: If you're looking for a good lightweight clipless pedal look elsewhere. These definitely are not for the weight weenies out there. Beyond that, these pedals are very strong. The cage as it may be called is simply incredible. It allows me to get even more power to the pedals in the down stroke than a similar Shimano PD-M520 pedal would or a Time Alium/Attack pedal. Being as I'm coming from a set of Time Alium's, I've found the cleat so far much more durable than the Time's all brass cleat. Big plus there. Weaknesses: I've found only a few minor weaknesses. The main complaint would be weight ( I don't worry about that since I use these on a touring bicycle vice a road/mountain bicycle). I've not noticed the grease leak (blow back) through the seals that another complained of as of yet (not had the pedals past a month). Lastly they are not self adjusting as the Time's are. Frankly, I think this is a plus as I've found the Time's rather tight and stiff in the Aliums. Bottom Line:
