"It's Shimano; as described. It's compatible with my old cleats on my current shoes; I have a little trouble engaging the left pedal, but not the right; so it's not from the equipment but from the cyclist :-)"

"For a like-for-like replacement on my mountain bike, equipment that has proven itself over time."
"I'm on my 10th pair (between me and my 2 sons), for the price it's nickel."
"They work very well, personally I set them to the minimum while I was breaking them in".
"Shimano reliability for an entry-level bike. Sound much heavier than the XT version, but will do for my second mountain bike that will stay on my vacation spot."
"Pedal easy to declare, nothing to say, nothing to complain about".
"Good pedals, but they keep cracking".
"Faithful to SHIMANO quality, I've been riding this model of pedal for over 20 years! And the value for money is unbeatable. ..."
"Horribly heavy, I had to tighten the spring as much as possible to limit the play (which is still persistent despite this), which made it impossible to clip/unclip. I don't recommend it"
"Shimano quality, easy to use, perfect for beginners. My daughter got used to it in one or two rides."
