Road Pedals ~

If, while bike riding, you like to get off and walk regularly, then select a pedal system that utilizes a recessed cleat. See our mountain bike section for more info on those types of pedals. On the other hand, select a road style pedal for the following reasons:

Time Pedals ~

The Time RXS Ti Carbon road racing pedal features a high ratio of platform surface to weight in order to eliminate hot spots as you pedal. A great new feature, "Sensor Elastic Tuning" allows the rider to fine tune the friction of float from total freedom (like Speedplay X pedals) to firmer float (like Look pedals) or anywhere in between! Side-to-side float is +/- 5 degrees and release angle is 15 degrees. Plus, you can adjust the pedal's position to the crank arms +/- 2.5mm (Q-Factor). The new cleat offers total compatibility with all road shoes. The pedal body on the RXS Carbon-Ti is a molded composite with carbon fibers for additional reinforcement; the spindle is hollow titanium and includes a very durable titanium spring, 195 grams. Now in stock in the 2007 Ulteam color.

RXE ~ 

The Time RXE Pedal is constructed with a steel spindle and a molded composite body, 270 grams. It's like the RXS above but it does not include "Sensor Elastic Tuning" so you cannot adjust the feel of friction in the float. Still has +/- 5 degrees of adjustable float. Color is gray.

 Campagnolo Pro-Fit Plus Road pedals ~

 "Form and Function"

Time tested, Campagnolo pedals have proven themselves one of the finest pedals on the market. Light, sleek, and beautifully crafted, the Campy pedals combine a front "Look-style" engagement with a rear "Time-style" engagement for the best of all worlds. The cleat platform is as large as Look so it provides excellent power transfer even for big riders. These are very rugged pedals that should provide years of top performance.

Slick innovation: On all the Campagnolo Pro-Fit pedals, the left axle is machined to accept a cadence magnet. Look Ma, no ugly zip ties!

Crank Brothers Quattro SL ~

The Quattro is an excellent choice for road riders seeking a pedal system that is easy to walk in. Quattro cleats fit all shoes equipped with standard 2-bolt "SPD" mounting holes. Use the included surround pontoons for easy walking with road shoes and leave them off for all offroad shoes. Quattros feature a wide and stable foot platform for comfort as well as superior power transfer. Composite body with hollow steel axles. Rotational float is 6 degrees. Weight is 312 grams. Color is gray with silver trim.
