I had the 520's on a bike for a couple of years, but found the 540's much nicer and worth a few extra bucks. The 520's seemed heavy for me even though I dont care about weight on my bike.

Cambria lists the weight on the 520 as 370g and the 540 as 320g. Personally, having wrench flats on the pedals is much more important than saving 20g. I dislike installing pedals with an allen wrench
