Bike Pedals Dual Platform SPD Compatible 500

Worked well easy to fit on my stationary bike I recently bought so I can use it with clippons and my son can use it with his trainers

Pedals worked for one year and a half (30 minutes 3 times per week, I was 73 kgs ) and then left pedal broke in a standing position giving me a long and severe cut on the back of my leg. Went immediately to A&E cause profuse bleeding and now I have a horrible scar on the back of my leg.

Bought these for my winter bike which I also use for popping to the shops etc. Therefore I didn't want to have to put my SPD shoes on for quick journeys. My problem is that although the size and shape of the "flat/non-SPD" side is good, it's also really slippy! There are no pins or cleats like most flat pedals just a very subtle texture on a smooth paint surface. This not only makes selecting the flat side tricky but also means I have had my feet slip off of the pedals! This is particularly a problem in the wet. Shame as this could've been a really good product.

I've now had 2 pairs of these, both have failed by the axle coming out of the body after approx. 2000 km of riding in all weathers, as they have been used for daily commuting. There is no user serviceable parts, so not a lot that can be done to extend their life. I'm "heavy", but was promised these would hold up. The warranty /guarantee is great as the first were replaced without hassled, and I expect the second pair to be as well, but I really don't want to have to go back to the store "again" to get another set. Just save yourself the hassle and get a set of proper Shimano A530's instead,

These pedals are easy to fit onto your bike, the clip tension can be adjusted to suit but unfortunately, if you lose the tension bolt, it can't be replaced (or so I was told by a Decathlon staff member) so you have to buy a new set of pedals hence I've only rated them as "Good"

These are among the cheapest dual platform pedals available and are a good match for mixed terrain (I tend to clip out riding off-road or in heavy traffic). However, the bearings have gone after approximately 1000 miles - pedals are flexing on the shaft and creaking under power. Will probably pay slightly more and replace with the Shimano equivalent.

Good

Pedals themselves are ok, but boy do they squeak and creak! Greased the spindle into the cranks, lubed the springs and cleats, even waxed my spd shoes, but cannot get the irritating noise to go away (switched old pedals back in, and bike immediately stops complaining!)

Pedal face eventually separated from pedal spindle but they had covered 5000 miles in all weather

I was sold this £25 pedal to go with my Rockrider 560. A completely inappropriate pedal and a waste of my Cyclescheme allowance. Not wide enough and dangerous for steep uphill technical riding. Take your foot off pedal for a second and it flips over to SPD. Try to get foot back on flat side & fall off bike. Nightmare. Do not buy this pedal unless you plan to use it for SPD only.

a good product at a reasonable price

While I was in France I went to Decathlon and found these pedals. Bought them, used them for around 300km, then they started making clicking sounds. Regreased everything. It was fine for another 300km, then the clicking returned. I did this 4 times, then I got bored and ordered a pair of Crankbrothers Candy 3 and had no problems since.
