Shimano Pd-T421
Hybrid pedals, perfect for my girlfriend on her road bike and mountain bike.
They allow the bikes to be used with cleats or as simple trainers, depending on our activities.
I have made since the assembly but only a little more than 100km. Am but so far very satisfied. As an absolute SPD newcomer, the click in and out went without problems.
A set of cleats (SM-SH56) is included.
The platform side of the pedals is very robust and not slippery even in light moisture (according to my humble experience).
Allows sneakers and clip-on shoes on the same pedal.
The clip engages easily and comes out just as easily, more easily than on a mountain bike pedal, which is quite convenient.
The seat is wide and the foot lies flat.
Pro
favourable combination pedal if you are not yet sure whether flat rate or click pedals.
can also be fitted before mounting the more stable XT combination pedals
Pro
I installed these into my ebike with Shimano shoes and noticed a significant improvement in pedalling speed and efficiency.
Important: There is a risk of serious fall/injury due to pedal clips in general. Should practice release and attach for few weeks before going for longer distance.
