Shimano Introduces the Dual-Function PD-EH510 SPD and Flat Pedal Hybrid
"Today, Shimano introduces the latest dual-function pedal in its lineup, the PD-EH510. This versatile hybrid pedal combines Shimano's renowned SPD clip-in system on one side with a fairly large flat pedal platform on the other. This gives riders the choice between clipped-in efficiency or the freedom of flat pedals, with a versatile pedal that's ready to ride, no matter which shoes they choose."
"" Designed for riders who value adaptability across changing terrain and riding styles, the PD-EH510 is built to perform whether commuting, exploring gravel roads, or venturing off pavement for the first time." This new dual-function pedal appears to be an upgrade over the brand's existing EH500 model and aims to provide riders with a convenient single-pedal solution that can do it all."
"The clip-in side features Shimano's time-tested and impressively consistent SPD binding system. The binding clips onto the SPD cleat for an efficient and secure mechanical connection to the pedal, with adjustable release tension. A " durable resin pedal body with a textured finish " surrounds the binding mechanism. The leading and trailing edges are angled and thinned for increased pedal clearance, but there appears to be some platform on either side to interface with the soles of shoes for lateral stability."
The PD-EH510 is a hybrid pedal offering an SPD clip-in on one side and a flat resin platform on the other to accommodate clipped or flat riding. The SPD side uses Shimano's consistent binding with adjustable release tension and a surrounding durable resin body with textured finish. The flat platform measures 111mm x 96mm and includes eight back-loading pins to enhance traction. Leading and trailing edges are thinned for improved pedal clearance while retaining lateral platform contact for stability. The model appears positioned as an upgrade to the EH500 and targets commuting, gravel exploration, and mixed-surface riding.
