Description
Shimano's Workhorse MTB Pedal
An incredible value in an offroad clipless pedal from Shimano! The PD-M520 SPD pedal features adjustable release tension and includes a set of SH51 SPD cleats with 4 degrees of float. While they only weigh slightly more than the higher-end XT and XTR pedals from Shimano, they boast all of the same features and the same high-grade performance at a fraction of the price. These pedals will serve you well and won't break the bank. The dual-sided mechanism lets you easily clip in with a simple step, without looking down at your shoes
Features:
Fluorine-coated binding claws allow for easy entry and release
Pedals are dual-sided for easy entry
Low-maintenance sealed bearing cartridge axles
Dual-sided tension adjustment
Open design avoids clogging
Strong Cro-Moly axle
Sealed cartridge bearings
Available in Black or White
Compatible with Shimano SPD cleats (one pair of SM-51 single release included)

Bang for the buck

Solid pedals at a great price. I've got bikes running these and another with the XT's which are quite a bit more expensive and only a handful of grams lighter. I have no need to buy a weight savings so little when really a couple of rides and a couple fewer beers will be a cheaper and easier way to lose those grams. In practice I cannot tell any difference and have since bought more of these 520s when needing to add pedals to the quiver.

Used these on a road bike for several thousand miles never having to adjust and never had any issues. Bought a second set at Western for a spin bike and didn't even need to tweek anything out of the box. Fantastic pedals def the best value.

THESE PEDALS ARE WONDERFUL!
by C.Hamilton

I've not used this type pedal before but I really love them. I'm use to the Look type pedal. These SPD's are very easy to clip in and out of, light weight, and float is keen. Highly recommend these.

These are my first pair of pedal that I clip into. They certainly help out on long rides and increased my overall speed. I ride the paved river trails in Orange and Los Angeles Counties and these are working well for me.

Good solid quality product. Easy install.

I use my Shimano PD-M520 Pedals on my commuter bike to and from work. They work just fine. They are good quality. I prefer the SPD Pedals because I don't have to look down to clip in like I do with SPD-SL pedals.

They spin!
by Old Biker-Runner

I bought these to save my Garmin power pedals from indoor training where I have power through the smart trainer. I enjoy the dual sided SPD and am considering converting my Vector 3's (Look) to Rally XC bodies (SPD) for the future. Paired these with a pair of fizik shoes. Very happy with the results.

I like that I can release my foot easier than the Look brand I have been using for the last 3 years. Heavier but adjustable also.

The pedals are like an old tractor. You know exactly what you're getting when you buy these. They take a lot of abusive and keep trucking along. Never disappointing.

I've tried multiple clip in pedals. Some of which were way more expensive.

Just your basic clipless SPD pedal. Nothing flashy, but very durable. Using these has made my commute and errand running a lot easier and more fun. Easy to clip in, easy to adjust, easy to swing out of. I'd recommend these for anyone looking for their first set of clipless pedals.
