Saint gravity flat pedal with skid plate
Shimano Saint PD-G8040 MTB Flat Pedals
Shimano's new top-tier gravity flat pedal pairs a forged-alloy body with a resin-composite skid plate that helps it glance off rocks. It is built for downhill, enduro and hard trail riding, and the pin layout can be adjusted.
Highlights
Why we rate it
Integrated skid plate
A resin-composite plate on the leading edges helps the pedal slide over rocks rather than hooking up.
Wide dual-concave platform
The large concave body cups the shoe for a planted, confident stance on steep terrain.
Configurable grip
Ten pins per side plus four optional inner positions, with 6mm and 3mm pins in the box.
Low-maintenance internals
A durable axle and bushing construction is designed to be fully rebuilt.
