I currently use Shimano M520 SPD pedals on all my bikes. So far I've had no problems and like being able to walk in my shoes. I know there are lots of threads on this but the only reason for me to go to road type pedals is to see if I'm missing something, not to solve a problem.

But I was looking at the Shimano A520 pedals and it seems it might be the best of both worlds, perhaps. I can use my same shoes but have a wider platform for more stability. My one question though is whether or not the pedal consistently rests with the clipless side up? Does anyone have them that could report?
