PEDAL AND SHOE SYSTEMS OPTIMIZED FOR EACH RIDING STYLE

SHIMANO PEDALING DYNAMICS is an integrated shoe and pedal system that provides the pedaling performance of cleated cycling shoes along with the ability to walk safely and comfortably off the bike.

Shimano offers variants of the SPD and SPD-SL systems optimized for on-road and off-road styles, with the addition of flat pedals for extra versatility.

The Evolution of SHIMANO Pedals

When introduced in 1990, Shimano's SPD clipless pedal system delivered a revolutionary leap forward in off-road riding technology. Gone forever were the days when mountain bikers were forced to use repurposed road cycling shoes and pedals with their stiff soles, oversized cleats, and one-sided entry. Instead, these early-adapter fat-tire riders could now reap the benefits of a reliable and straightforward design meant specifically for the rigors of off-road riding.

Featuring a stable and efficient pedaling platform, dual-sided entry, easy clip-in and clip-out, exceptional mud-shedding, and a comfortable, secure connection to the bike (plus the ability to walk normally when off the bike), Shimano’s SPD system truly changed the game. And while SPD pedals have seen many performance-enhancing refinements over the years, the original pedal-cleat interface design remains virtually unchanged. No wonder it’s the standard by which all other clipless pedal systems are judged.

Turning its attention to road riding, Shimano further enhanced its legacy of revolutionary pedal and cleat innovation with the 2003 launch of SPD-SL, which features a wider pedal body, larger cleats, single-sided entry, and three-bolt attachment. This road cycling-specific system was—and remains—exactly what WorldTour pros and weekend warriors alike were looking for, delivering efficient power transfer, intuitive function, extensive adjustability, and long-term durability.

Building on Shimano’s legendary history of pedal innovation, Shimano flat pedals have transformed the off-road riding experience for those seeking a secure connection with the bike without the need for a clipless system. These pedals are designed to offer riders the best of both worlds: the freedom to easily disengage from their bike when needed while maintaining a solid, reliable grip during the ride.
