VWilliams added a product review for Shimano PD-M545 Clipless Pedal 12/17/2011 1:46 PM
C138_101959860_1267164411

Good standby

Rating:

The Good: Adjustable tension, easy release.

The Bad: Do not work well in nasty conditions.

Overall: For the first timer with clipless pedals, something from Shimano is a must. Having the adjustable tension is key to getting really comfortable with getting in and out of the pedals. The price is reasonable, and they last pretty well. I've raced these on and off for DH for quite some time. I've been reasonably happy with the durability, and if you are not racing in the mud, they are really reliable.

So funny all the supposed secrecy around stuff like this. Of course Trek wants it to be seen. You put one of the fastest, most scrutinized riders in the world on a new bike at a World Cup race. Of course they did this on purpose, of course they want it to be seen and talked about. Not like some secret test session behind closed doors, and you know what, it's working! You just looked at this post, you are curious. BRILLIANT!

Sick riding. You hate to watch the winning run and think to yourself, ok, now let me watch the ACTUAL winning run. No question Semenuk is one of the sickest riders out there, but I can't agree that he won this contest.

The cage looks prototype-ish. Would be most excellent if they produced these but my guess is no.

The Yeti race trailer decided to make a pit stop in SLC. Not totally planned, their truck made the decision for them. Well, lucky for us, they decided to hang out at the shop while they got it sorted out, and we got to check out Jared Graves' 2011 DH

We've tried these on a few different bikes at Go-Ride. You have to make certain there is clearance, as the point where the bike bottoms out can change quite a bit. A much easier, and cheaper way to play with geometry, than an adjustable headset, or a ... more »
