Shimano PD-5700 105 Road Bike Pedals, Silver Feature

  • Road pedals with SPD bindings for proven performance
  • Extra-wide pedal platform for efficient power transfer
  • Low-maintenance sealed-cartridge axle unit
  • Large binding target for quick engagement
  • Adjustable cleat tension with indicators
Shimano's recessed cleat and clipless pedal technology, called SPD, revolutionized the cycling shoe/pedal interface. Since then, decades of legendary "in the dirt" dependability, reliability, and sheer endurance have made SPD the world's go-to pedal technology. Shimano's PD-5700 road pedals continue the SPD tradition, with proven designs that work in real-world conditions. The pedals offer such details as an extra-wide stainless-steel platform that efficiently transfers power from foot to pedal, a low-maintenance sealed cartridge axle unit, a large binding target for quick engagement, and adjustable cleat tension with indicators. The sealed bearings and chromoly axle help these pedals stand up to the rigors of competitive riding.

About Shimano
In 1961, a three-speed bicycle hub was displayed at the New York Toy Show. The hub--an affordable and reliable version of the multi-speed hubs growing in popularity at the time--caught the attention of the industry. So much so that by 1965, Yoshizo Shimano--the youngest son of the company founder in Japan--opened an office in New York. Shimano's goal was to get quicker product feedback and to provide technical and warranty assistance to retailers selling bikes equipped with Shimano parts. Though Shimano American has grown from that first modest office staffed by only three people to a full distribution center with sales and marketing offices, its goals are the same: listen to customers and meet their needs for both bicycle and fishing products. Featuring an ultra-wide stainless steel pedal platform and adjustable cleat tension, the Shimano 105 pedal performs at a high level without breaking the bank. The durable sealed bearings and stiff cromoly axle mean this pedal stands up admirably to the rigors of competitive riding. Includes one pair of three-bolt SPD-SL cleats with six degrees of built in float.
