FAQs
Are these pedal tops suitable for all Shimano SPD pedals?
No, they are only compatible with PDM959 / M770 / M515 / M520 / M540 / M505 Shimano SPD pedal models.
What material are the pedal tops made of?
They are made of plastic.
Do these pedal tops affect pedaling efficiency?
They may reduce pedaling efficiency compared to using SPD shoes directly, but they offer convenience for casual use.
How do I remove the pedal top?
You can usually remove them by using a tool, like a flathead screwdriver, to pry them off the pedal. Exercise caution not to damage the pedal or the pedal top.
Where can I purchase replacement reflectors?
Replacement reflectors may be available from Shimano retailers or online stores that sell bicycle accessories.
Troubleshooting
Pedal top does not snap in securely.
Ensure the pedal top is correctly aligned with the SPD mechanism and apply firm pressure until it clicks into place. Check for any obstructions or damage to the pedal top or pedal.
Reflectors are loose or fall off.
Make sure the reflectors are properly attached to the plates. If they continue to come loose, consider using a small amount of adhesive to secure them.
