Bought these for a bike my wife and I share for causal road biking, clipless side for meflats for her.
Used to have A530, which are the same concept but the flats could get slippery but got the job done. This version has a larger pedal bed and with adjustable traction set screws. It's very effective, in both comfort and providing traction with just about any street shoes. SPD-side works like just about everything Shimano makes....which is very well.

I need the duel cited pedal. The platform is nice And large. With the set screws sticking up grab nicely. The SPD side clips in well

I have three bicycles. One is a full suspension mountain bike, one is a gravel bike and one is a road bike. The mountain bike has flat pedals and other two have dual sided pedals. The dual sided pedals work well because, on any given day, I could be commuting, hiking, camping, club riding, etc. and I don't have to have or want special shoes for each type of ride. The pedals are well made. Plain shoes (street, tennis, hikers, sandals etc.,) do not slip off the flat side of the pedal and SPD equipped shoes easily clip in and out. I highly recommend them for their versatility and quality.

If you need a casual shoe compatible pedal that also features SPD when you need it, look no further. This pedal would pair perfectly to any bike you use causally and occasionally like to push.

When I looked into choices of dual purpose pedals, the PD-EH500 pedals looked like they would work perfectly for me and I couldn't be any happier with my choice. Extremely easy SPD to lock and release when wearing my cleats and perfect size platforms with excellent grip for my everyday shoes. Unlike others I've owned in the past, these pedals are much easier to orientate between SPD and flat. The perfect commuting Ebike pedal for road and trail!

one of the most versatile and easy to learn clipping in

A fantastic pedal for the money, versatile and easy to get in and out of. Bought these for myself, but ended up giving them to my wife who was transitioning to clipless pedals. Now I need another pair.
Review by Steve
These are perfect for someone like me who wants one bike to do it all. When I go out for a workout ride or a long distance ride, I want to click in with spd cleats. But when I want to take a leisurely ride with my wife, I like to wear street clothes and sandals. These pedals will do either. They are also pretty light for a combo pedal. Well done Shimano!
Review by Michael
Excellent pedal If you want to transition to clipless technology. I use it for mountain biking, although believe primary purpose is for road. The flat surface allows me to keep pedaling if I�m having difficulty clipping in - which I usually don�t.

I purchased these pedals to change out existing ones on a Trek FX while riding more during covid. First time riding spd pedals and found it to be extremely easy to get in an out even with the two sided pedal. Flat side has a lot of grip and is great with regular shoes for riding around the neighborhood with kids. Definitely recommend these pedals if you need the flexibility of flats and clipless.

The quality is in line with similar Shimano products and the pedals are light in weight for the price point. Shimano could use a larger foot platform for the non-clip side and larger pegs as the small size makes them hard to handle when initially screwing in.

Work great. Easy to clip in and out of. Stable platform, great for gravel bike.
Bonus theyre actually really pretty

I used to have cheap Shimano pedals, these are much easier to get in and out, more stylish, and easier to ride with flat shoes.

Great product for a good price! Only issue is the pedal gets flipped upside down often when using the flat side.
