Are these M505 pedals any good?

 

 

.....or is it better to go for the M520 or M540??

Rather go for the 520 or 540s, they are a bit better in muddy conditions. The 505 is still based on the older Shimano design.

I agree here, they also look a far site nicer.

I got a set of M505s with my MTB.

They are the worst pedals I've ever ridden. No matter where I set the adjustment screw, they were almost impossible to clip out of with any kind of ease. M520s are light years ahead in terms of useabilty, as were the cheap Wellgos (I think they're called) I was using previously.

 

They're so bad, I'm not even prepared to give my old M505s away: their's noone I hate enough to give them to.
