cassette, I was stuck with having to get off to go up hills due to the horrendous banging and slipping coming from behind me. And the bike wasn't too happy either.
So then, off to buy a new cassette. At the time, the Deore was all I could afford. It's a fairly substantial piece of kit. Many high end cassettes have fairly little metal in them, the sprockets being held together by plastic spacers. On this one, you've got no such luxury. Everything is metal. Fortunately, not solid metal, but still rather a lot, and it can add quite a bit to the weight of your bike.
Anyway, the upshot is that my bike didn't skip when I pedalled. Nice.
Now the downside. Having just had a peek at it, the teeth are starting to wear at an alarming rate. I've had it about four months. Granted, it's been ridden in some rather bad conditions. My local ...
Advantages: Strong, well made, functional Disadvantages: Nothing yet.
SPD INTRO
ShimanoM072 shoes are SPD cycling shoes so here's a quick explanation of what SPD is.
For those who may not know SPD stands for Shimano Pedaling Dynamic. All very nice I hear you say, so to explain they are Clipless pedals. Basically you get a pair of shoes, bolt on some clips to the shoes, get a pair of SPD pedals which are like a clamp, step on the pedals and your feet are locked to the pedals. Rotating your feet to the side then releases you from the pedal. (not as dangerous as it sounds).
GENERAL
Shimano mountain bike shoes have been around for a number of years now and in my opinion if you are a user of SPD pedals then you can't beat Shimano PSD shoes for reliability. I have used number if different types over the years, most of which I cant remember the name off and ones that usually found the bucket because they ...

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Shimano MO72
Advantages: Ease of use, Ease of installation, Versatile, Recessed MTB style cleats, Aesthetically pleasing! Disadvantages: For road cycling the pedals are slightly heavier than more expensive alternatives
I recently purchased a set of ShimanoM520 SPD pedals for my road bike. Although they are technically mountain bike pedals, I much prefer the Shimano cleats supplied with mountain biking shoes, which are recessed and hence make the shoes a lot easier to walk in!
After installing the pedals on my bike (which took no more than five minutes) and fixing the supplied cleats to my Shimano SPD shoes, I was ready to ride. The pedals give you the option to adjust the tension in the clips however I found that they worked fine straight out of the box!!
One thing I like about these pedals is the ease in which you can clip in and out. With clips on both sides there is no hassle trying to flip the pedal over, and you simple need to place your shoe anywhere near the correct position and its really easy to clip in!
For the price these pedals are ...
