I use the 520 on my road bike. The trail platform is useful off road where you might want to ride unclipped in if you need to pop out a foot, but once clipped in, the difference is minimal. The cost/weight saving of the 520s being the advantage I would say.A Flock of Birds

Thanks, are the 530s easier to clip in and off, or is it all rather academic?0

No difference in use as far as I can tell.A Flock of Birds

Yes, Shimano pedals come with cleats - use them, should be SH-51.0
