Deore XT wide-platform SPD trail pedal
Shimano Deore XT PD-M8220 SPD Trail Pedals
New for 2026, this replaces the M8120 and brings the XTR M9220's wide, pinned platform down to Deore XT money. A tough outer cage protects the mechanism from rock strikes, and it ships with the new CL-MT001 cleat.
Highlights
Why we rate it
XTR-derived platform
The wide contact area and grip pattern come from the M9220 and keep the foot stable on descents.
Adjustable traction pins
Four removable pins per side can be tuned for grip with your shoe.
Protective outer cage
A robust cage shields the binding from rock strikes on rough trails.
Improved seals
An updated seal design keeps the bearings turning smoothly for longer.
Easy engagement cleat
The included CL-MT001 cleat allows a straight-down or heel-first clip-in and is backwards compatible with SPD.
