Speedplay Zero Ti

Price Paid:  $0.00 at SBR Sports (sbrtri.c

Favorite Ride:
Anywhere without stop lights

Bike Setup:
SRAM Rival
Shimano DA 10

Summary:
Wow. And I thought my Speedplay X2/X5s rocked. These pedals give you everything. They look cool. The are light. They truly let you put all the power into the crank. The adjustment screws really help you dial in how much float you want. Easy. I can ride on my trainer and change my float with a screw driver.

Strengths:
Stiff.
Dual-sided entry.
Cool looking.
Light weight.
Speedplay. What more do I need to say?

Weaknesses:
If you want to use them in cyclocross, don't. The cleats will get clogged. Just stay on the pavement.

Favorite Ride:

Bike Setup:
Pinarello Prince SL, Campy Record

Summary:
The float adjustment and double-sided entry are great, as is the light weight. I do have trouble entering about 25% of the time - sometimes the geometry between the cleat and pedal just doesn't seem to align. I've tried lube and loosening the cleat but no help. When entry works it's like butter and exit is never a problem.

Strengths:
Float adjustment, low profile, lots of room for cleat positioning, easy exit, easy entry when it works

Weaknesses:
Pricey and weight not as low as it appears due to heavy cleat, occasional entry problems, cleat easily gunked up with mud or debris

Summary:
I love these pedals! Before I used Campagnolo Record Pro-fit. After 2 years they had tons of play front rear aswell as lateral (not rotational). Not only the cleats had worn but als the plastic! on the pedals itself. The zero's feel is from day one much firmer because the much larger engagement-area. No front rear play, no lateral play. The engagement is metal on metal, I don't expect much wear. Also on the plus side is the possibility of lateral adjustment, easy set-up of the cleats, the foot is nearer to the axlecentre and there is a shim-set to adjust for leglenght difference! These are the definitive pedals for me.

Strengths:
Mentioned above: set-up, no play, weight, doublesided engagement, etc.

Weaknesses:
Pedalbolts are #@$%^$imperial and not metric!
Initialy click-in is tough.
