Shimano PD-R600 Pedals

The Shimano PD-R600 was a road clipless pedal, often described as an Ultegra-level equivalent to the high-end Dura-Ace 7750 pedal, offering a similar wide, low-profile platform for stability and comfort. It featured an SPD-SL cleat-compatible design with adjustable tension and an easy clip-in action due to the pedals slanting upwards for entry. These pedals were known for their functionality and a slight weight advantage over their Dura-Ace counterparts, though installation required an 8mm Allen key rather than traditional wrench flats. Key Features SPD-SL System: Uses the same cleats as the Dura-Ace pedals, providing consistent performance. Wide Platform: Offers great stability and comfort for the foot. Low-Profile Design: Contributes to a sleek look and easy entry. Adjustable Tension: Allows riders to customize the effort needed to release from the pedal. Easy Entry: The pedal body is designed to slant upward, making it easier to insert the cleat. Material: Constructed with a blend of aluminum, steel, and alloy, the PD-R600 is a durable pedal with a solid build quality. The PD-R600 was designed as an accessible, high-performing pedal for road cyclists. It offered the performance benefits of the premium Dura-Ace models at a more affordable price point, making it a great option for serious cyclists.
