For cycle touring and urban use
Looking for a multi-purpose pedal for road and urban use? Shimano has the answer with the PD-EH500 model, which offers a flat section and an automatic section.
Technology specialist
The PD-EH500 Shimano are hybrid pedals designed for cycle touring, cycle commuting and recreational gravel riding, offering the ideal balance between everyday comfort and sporting performance. Thanks to their dual-sided design, they allow you to ride with either standard shoes or SPD clipless shoes, depending on the requirements of your ride.
On one side is an SPD system with automatic engagement, which is effective and features adjustable tension for a secure and gradual fit. On the other side, a flat, grippy platform ensures good stability when worn with street shoes or walking boots. This dual functionality makes them a highly popular choice for cyclists who alternate between urban journeys and long rides.

The flat side of the pedals is wide enough to be used for a long time with normal shoes. The cleats are easy to clip in/out. (Translated review)
The left pedal has developed play after 4000 km. For disassembly, the nut is plastic, it exploded immediately. Real crap. (Translated review)
Hesitant between flat and clipless pedals, I opted for this pedal and I do not regret it. It's super versatile and reassuring. Flat on descents and clipped in on big climbs. I love it. (Translated review)
