Carbon SPD-SL road pedal
Shimano Ultegra PD-R8000 SPD-SL Road Pedals
The Ultegra SPD-SL pedal gets most of Dura-Ace's platform design for less money and only about 20g more weight. It is still current for riders staying on SPD-SL cleats.
Highlights
Why we rate it
Wide carbon body
A broad, light platform gives a big contact area under the shoe for steady power transfer.
Low profile
The slim body improves cornering clearance and keeps the foot close to the axle.
Stainless wear plate
A steel plate on the body protects against cleat wear and keeps engagement consistent over time.
SPD-SL ecosystem
Works with all SPD-SL cleats. The supplied yellow cleats give a forgiving 6 degrees of float.
Two axle widths
Standard and +4mm axle versions suit different stance widths.
