“This pedal provides best of both application i.e. flat pedal on one side and clip on the other. This is for MX application but I use it for road where I use it with MX clipless shoe. When I'm riding in a bike pathway I use the clip side and when I'm riding in multi traffic area which is more unpredictable, I use the flat side where you need quick response to get off the pedal/bike. I hope Shimano develops one for road use clipless/Flat.”
