Shimano PD-M324 Pedals

Yes, that is the primary design purpose. One side of the pedal features a standard flat platform, allowing you to ride comfortably in casual shoes without needing cycling-specific footwear.

These pedals are compatible with any cycling shoe that accepts a two-bolt SPD cleat system. They will not work with three-bolt road cleats, such as those used for Look or Shimano SPD-SL systems.

There is an adjustment screw located on the binding mechanism of the pedal. You can use a hex key to increase or decrease the spring tension, allowing you to customize how easily your cleat engages and releases.

Absolutely. The PD-M324s are built with durable chromoly axles and sealed bearings, making them a reliable choice for touring and daily commuting where longevity and consistent performance are required.

Yes, a set of Shimano SPD cleats is included in the box, so you will have everything you need to get started if you already have compatible shoes.

At 533 grams per pair, they are heavier than many performance-oriented pedals due to the dual-purpose construction. While they are not designed for weight-conscious racing, the added weight is a trade-off for the versatility of having both flat and clipless options.
