It is a single sided (so other side promises to be comfortable with non riding shoes) SPD pedals, which means many shoes can be used.
Its other side doesn't look flat.

Can one ride the A520 with running shoes? I'm talking less than 10km at a time.
I'd like to report that I did get the Shimano A520, and it's "other side" isn't flat, and it's uncomfortable to ride with running shoes.

However, I followed an advice I got here on BF, and got the Winwood Decksters, and I'd like to say that I love them!

They're a bit heavy, but I hope it means they're not fragile.
Because they're so heavy, they're always on the bottom, so I have to remember that, and flip them when I start riding.
But it's not really a problem, as I only use them for short commutes.

Tal.
