Tip from the pros
The tension of your pedals is adjustable to adapt the level of support to your preferences and your usage.Low tension: Eases unclipping (ideal for beginners or in traffic).
High tension: Provides better support and allows you to pull harder on the pedal.
Find the adjustment level that ensures both safety and efficiency.
Important advice:Always anticipate unclipping before stopping.
Security
When learning to use clipless pedals, make sure you plan ahead each time you want to unclip and put your foot down (at traffic lights, when stopping, or when there's an obstacle in the way).
If you aren't yet completely at ease with cleats, you might want to have one side of your pedals as flat pedals (ref. 8405478) to use on the more technical sections of your ride.
PRODUCT CARE
The SPD-M324 pedals are designed to last.
The open fixing mechanism sheds mud so that the contact point between the pedal and shoe stays clean.
The chromoly steel axle and sealed cartridge bearings require little maintenance.
With a design that streamlines the clipping in process and efficiently sheds mud and debris, the M520 pedals are a great option for those in search of clipless pedals.
