I was using mountain bike type pedals. I switched to the Shimano Ulegra SPD-SL Racing Pedals. I'm glad I did, what a difference! I now truly understand the expression "Power Transfer." When you push on the pedals, you go forward, and you go forward pretty fast. I would recommend these pedals to anyone.
shimano has always been a trusted brand. i would of given a ten but they are a bit on the heavy side of the scale. however for the price and quality am happy with them.
These are a great road pedal! I love the smooth clip in action and broad platform. These are Ultegra, so they are great quality. Light, fast and constructed well. Even carbon fiber! I love them!
I've been very impressed with the quality and function of the Ultegra R8000 series. I've been riding on an early version of Ultegra for well over 10 years and the R8000 group including these pedals is just a vast improvement on an already good group. Wish I would have upgraded earlier.
These Shimano Ultegra pedals are my first ever bicycle clip on pedals and they are amazing! I like how easy they are to clip on and the weight. They are a bit pricey though in my opinion.
