The Wahoo Speedplay Aero Pedals are single-sided road pedals designed with aerodynamics as the primary focus. Unlike the other pedals in the Speedplay lineup, the Aero uses a single-sided design rather than dual-sided entry. The top surface of the pedal body features dimpled aerodynamic shaping that's been tested in computational fluid dynamics simulations to reduce drag, while the bottom side is smooth without a clipping mechanism. The pedal body is made from Grivory composite with a stainless steel spindle and triple-sealed cartridge and needle bearings.

The pedals ship with Standard Tension cleats that include integrated cleat surrounds for an aerodynamic profile. The cleat surrounds create a smooth, continuous surface between the cleat body and the rubberized cover, which reduces turbulence around the shoe-pedal interface. The release angle is micro-adjustable from zero to 7.5 degrees, giving you control over how much rotational force is needed before the cleat releases. If you want an easier release for training rides, you can purchase Easy Tension cleats separately that use a lighter-action spring mechanism, though you'll need to swap the Standard Tension cleats that come with the pedals.

The cleat system provides independent three-axis adjustability that lets you dial in your position without compromise. You get up to 13 millimeters of fore-aft movement to position the cleat exactly where your foot needs to be over the pedal spindle, plus up to eight millimeters of side-to-side adjustment to accommodate different shoe widths or foot angles. Float is adjustable from zero degrees for a completely fixed position up to 15 degrees of rotational movement, so you can set the amount of lateral play that works for your knees and riding style. This level of adjustability helps prevent knee pain and allows you to optimize your biomechanics for maximum power transfer.... Read More
