Performance can quickly become an obsession. A fire that burns deep in the DNA of

competitors. It’s what fuels the unquenchable thirst to be faster, stronger, better. And it’s been

the driving force behind Speedplay pedals since day one. When we first analyzed conventional

pedal design, we saw gaping holes in functionality and huge opportunities to capture untapped

power. So we created a radically new pedal system from scratch. And from its raw beginnings,

it worked. Racers took notice. They rode. They talked.

PuSH ING PERFORMANCE . ®

We listened.

For 20 years that ongoing dialogue between elite riders and obsessive designers has propelled

Speedplay to the top of our game and to the top of podiums worldwide. The Tour de France.

Giro d’Italia. Vuelta a España. Paris-Roubaix. The Five Monuments of Cycling. World Road,

Time Trial and Triathlon Championships. And countless others. From the globe’s most famous

races to the daily rides of cyclists everywhere, Speedplay puts performance first.

At Speedplay, we didn’t set out to improve conventional pedal designs. We knew immediately

that the only way to make a substantive leap in pedal performance was to reinvent the entire

system. So we did, and the results speak for themselves. From cleat to spindle, no other pedal

combines so many design breakthroughs into such a light, intuitive, high-performance system.

DuAL-SIDED PERFORMANCE – With our revolutionary dual-sided design, there’s no

fumbling, kicking or searching for the “right” side of the pedal. Just step down on the self-

locating cleat and you’re in.

LIGHtER wEIGHt – By locating the retention mechanism in the cleat instead of the pedal,

we were able to offer dual-sided performance without the weight of redundant mechanisms.

SECuRE ENGAGEMENt – Speedplay’s true-locking retention mechanism isolates spring

tension from locking security. Entry and exit is easy, but unintentional release is virtually

impossible. And unlike plastic, the metal-to-metal contact edges of Speedplay’s engagement

mechanism ensure high-mileage durability.

KNEE-FRIENDLy FLOAt – Unlike pedals that torque your knees with self-centering spring

tension, the float in Speedplay pedals was designed to let your knees and ankles follow their

natural paths through the pedal stroke.

Speedplay’s slim pedal design delivers more cornering clearance.

Wind tunnel tests show the reduced frontal area of Speedplay pedals can save up to 33 seconds per hour.

Speedplay pedalS other

Grease Port

MICRO-ADjuStAbLE FLOAt – Speedplay Zeros and Syzr pedal systems allow rotational

float to be micro-adjusted throughout the float range or set to a fixed position. The random

rotational “slop” and ambiguous connection that pass for float in other pedals and cleats simply

can’t compare.

MAxIMuM CLEAt ADjuStAbILIty – No other pedal system offers fore-aft, side-to-side

and rotational foot positions that can each be adjusted independently. These precise fit settings

can then be identically matched when installing replacement cleats.

LARGER PLAtFORM SIzE – Pedal size does not equal platform size. The contact area between

the shoe and cleat, plus the stability of the interface, is what truly matters. Speedplay Zero, Light

Action and X Series pedals provide an ideal platform that’s up to 25% larger than other brands.

IMPROvED CORNERING CLEARANCE – The slim profile of the Speedplay pedal design

offers the best cornering clearance available, so you can corner at higher speeds without clipping

your pedals.

bEttER POwER tRANSFER – Speedplay offers the lowest stack height available of any

pedal system, keeping your shoe closer to the spindle for optimal power transfer.

MORE AERODyNAMIC – Wind tunnel tests show the reduced frontal area and streamlined

profile of Speedplay pedals can save up to 33 seconds per hour – equivalent to the speed gained

when switching from a standard front wheel to a deep-profile, aerodynamic front wheel.

EASIER MAINtENANCE – Every Speedplay pedal has a convenient grease port that makes

routine maintenance a snap.

The Zero, Light Action and X Series cleats provide a pedaling platform contact area that’s 25% larger than some other brands.

Zero’s two limit screws let you set the amount and angle of float, from 0° to 15°, with separate adjustments for inward and outward rotation.

In the quest for race-day performance, we pulled out all the stops and distilled the

Speedplay Zero’s race-proven design down to its explosive essence. The result is

the Nanogram Zero, the lightest racing pedal in the peloton.

Already the global standard for lightweight performance, we took the Speedplay Zero and

judiciously selected the most exotic, gram-shaving materials, including carbon fiber, titanium

and alloy, to drop weight without compromising quality or safety. The winning numbers? Just

65 grams per pedal. Even the cleats, at a mere 88 grams per pair, are 29.5 grams lighter than

standard zero cleats. Nanogram Zero. The race-day dominator.

Sometimes the simplest ideas are the best. The Speedplay Zero’s dual-sided entry allows you

to step and go without a second thought, eliminating the time-wasting fumbling, kicking and

searching you get with single-sided pedals. The Zero also takes Speedplay’s trademark float to

the next level with precision adjustment options unmatched by any other pedal design. Fore-

aft, side-to-side and rotational foot positions can each be adjusted independently. And unlike

traditional one-piece cleats, each of the three critical adjustments of Zero cleats can be modified

without affecting the position of the other adjustments. The precise cleat adjustability also means

the original settings can be identically matched when replacing cleats, with no guesswork or

misalignment issues. Zero pedals come in a range of models to suit riders of all levels, from

weekend warriors to seasoned professionals.

50% while maintaining the same retention security and release as the original. Once you’re rolling, the large,

stable cleat and smooth, non-centering free-float keep your knees comfortable mile after mile. Speedplay

Light Action Pedals fit virtually all road shoes and are easy to maintain with their built-in grease port.

And while Light Action pedals are perfect for riders new to clipless pedals, they include all the

unique performance features that have made Speedplay the choice of champions.

• Updated Ultra Light Action Cleat reduces engagement effort by 50%

A clipless pedal system should function so intuitively that any cyclist can immediately feel

The choice of professional fit gurus at Bike Fit Systems,

Boulder Center for Sports Medicine, BG Fit and Serotta

International Cycling Institute, the Speedplay Pro Fit Case

adds value to fitting services, while offering the ability to

easily address critical biomechanical challenges.

Proper bike fit begins at the pedal, and there’s no better way to ensure proper fit than with Speedplay’s Pro Fit Case.

Through years of working with professional riders, Speedplay has perfected a fitting system to fine-tune all five critical

variables of the pedal-to-shoe connection. With the Pro Fit Case, professional fit technicians can easily evaluate and

optimize a rider’s pedal and cleat setup for range of float, fore/aft cleat placement, foot-stance width, varus and valgus

foot tilt, and leg-length discrepancy.

Like other groundbreaking technological revolutions, Speedplay’s innovative history began with a

simple idea. Create the first dual-sided high-performance road pedal. Speedplay’s unique design

forever changed the form factor and performance of clipless pedals. Today, that original flash of simple

brilliance lives on in all Speedplay road pedals.

Special ceramic roller-cam contacts were developed for Syzr cleats to ensure consistent release in wet or

muddy conditions. Instead of the usual metal-to-metal connection that allows other pedals to seize during

release, Syzr cleats feature ceramic roller-cams that do not seize when wet because they roll. In addition to

improving consistency of release, the ceramic roller-cams provide exceptional, long-term durability.

Syzr pedals use precision needle and cartridge bearings and feature a convenient built-in grease-port for

easy routine maintenance. Syzr cleats are compatible with all recessed 2-hole shoe mounts, and unlike some

systems, Syzr pedals will not cause damage to your shoes.

Syzr pedals are available in a choice of stainless steel or titanium spindles and will offer a wide range of

custom-fit options. As with all Speedplay Pedal Systems, local manufacturing is a priority, so many of the

Syzr’s components are produced in the US and then hand-assembled at Speedplay in San Diego, California.

• Unique, pivoting cleat provides friction-free, knee-friendly float

• Micro-adjustable, 10-degree float range makes cleat set-up easy

• Direct-through-the-cleat power transfer means no energy loss from compression and no degradation in function from shoe sole wear

• Proprietary Ceramic Roller-Cam Release Technology ensures consistent disengagement in all conditions

• Easier entry with patented cleat Funnel Guides

At Speedplay, we were born with the need for speed – both on-road and off. After inventing the most technically-advanced road

pedals, we set out to develop a state-of-the-art, off-road pedal system that is equally capable on the road. Speedplay’s new Syzr

is the culmination of a multi-year R&D effort to develop the ultimate, made-to-go-anywhere clipless pedal system.

We started by making Syzr Pedal Systems transfer power more efficiently. Rider power is delivered to the Syzr pedal directly

through the cleat, not through the flexible rubber lugs of the shoe sole. This improved design for transferring power ensures that

no rider energy is lost during transmission. We also improved the precision of the pedal/cleat connection to eliminate the slop and

lateral instability common to off-road pedals.

Another first for off-road pedals is the Syzr’s patented, micro-adjustable float technology. By designing a pivot mechanism directly

into the cleat, the Syzr is the only off-road pedal system to provide a user-customizable, 10-degree range of float. Cleat set-up is

easier too since there is no need to reposition the cleat to make angular adjustments.

To make Syzr pedals easier to engage, Syzr cleats feature proprietary Funnel Guides that steer the cleat into the pedal’s latch

mechanism. Two wing-shaped Funnel Guides at the front of each cleat effectively increase the size of the target area to facilitate

easier engagement. Additionally, engagement security has been optimized by reversing the typical orientation of the pedal’s latch

mechanism. The Syzr’s new latch design virtually prevents inadvertent release when pulling hard on the pedals.

The Frog takes Speedplay’s proven performance beyond the pavement, but that’s only the

beginning. Originally created as a mountain bike pedal, the Frog has also gained a loyal

following among road cyclists and commuters who prefer recessed, walkable cleats. The Frog

cleat is virtually immune to clogging because debris is pushed out the back when you engage

the pedal. The Frog is the easiest MTB pedal to engage and release, yet it holds securely over

any terrain. For riders who want intuitive clipless performance no matter where they ride, the

lightweight Speedplay Frog is ready to roll.

Berms. Big hits. Bomb-drops-to-flat. Downhill mountain bike racing can deal out heavy punishment. Good thing the Speedplay

Drillium pedal is built to handle top-to-bottom assaults. The stylish CNC-machined Drillium pedal’s slant-parallelogram design

guides your foot quickly into the optimum position, while the huge surface area provides a bigger target, more comfort and better

power transmission. The thin, concave body profile further increases support and delivers white-knuckle grip. For extra bite, there

are 20 replaceable stainless steel traction pins on each pedal. We drilled out the body to optimize the strength-to-weight ratio,

then we mounted it all on a 12mm forged alloy-steel spindle that can handle the hardest landings. At only 565g per pair,

the Drillium pedals are built to fly down the sketchiest terrain, or high above it. With its hard-anodized finish and

laser-etched logos, the Drillium is the super-premium platform for downhill destroyers, BMX pilots and

styled-out beach cruisers.
