Description

Wahoo's Speedplay Pedal line-up includes these extended length axle-spindle lengths in three options beyond the standard 53mm version (56, 59, 65 mm). The Speedpay Zero, like the other Wahoo Speedplay models, features some re-engineered components from the original Speedplay pedals. From about 230 grams, the Zero Extended Spindle models are competitively light, incredibly strong, and built to last. The essentials of the legendary Speedplay design are here, with unbeatable stack height, 3-axis cleat adjustment, superior cornering clearance, dual-side entry, and rotational free float. Wahoo has made some changes that they will improve durability, basically eliminate greasing and maintenance, and an upgraded, universal walkable cleat system offered in standard or light spring tension. The Zero comes equipped with standard tension cleats, and is available in four Q-factor spindle lengths.

The stainless steel axle-equipped pedal, Grivory composite body and integrated cleat system offers peak power transfer and exceptional durability year after year. The customized fit and dual-sided entry will allow you to crank on the pedals in confidence and comfort- with no rider weight limit. The integrated cleat system with 3-axis adjustability allows you to precisely dial in your fit for optimized biometrics and increased power transfer. At release, the Zero is the only Wahoo Speedplay model offered with four axle lengths (53, 56, 59, 65 mm).

A challenge for the original Speedplay pedals was that the spring retention and rotation system only covered about 40% of the circumference of the pedal. Combined with the cleat design, this did allow any sand or grit to release from the system, but also created an opportunity for uneven wear, which would lead to side to side rocking that wore the body and cleat down over time. By moving to a 360° ring around the edge of the body this issue will be eliminated, and the cleat allows grains and grit to escape. The second important change is a redesigned axle and bearing system that visually resembles the old version, but it very different. The body now rides on triple sealed cartridge & needle bearings, and have a superior seal system. The grease port has been eliminated as Wahoo is confident you will never need to grease them. on the inboard side of the axle, the flats for a pedal wrench are gone, and an 8mm Hex is required to install, accessed from behind the pedal axle.

The cleat system has slight modifications, and is again designed for safer walking and protecting the cleat interface itself. The Standard Tension Cleat included with the Zero can be positioned on the bottom of the shoe and adjusted fore-aft (14mm), left-right (8mm) and rotationally, allowing between 0-15° of float. The textured rubber of the walkable body offers grip across multiple surfaces and is more durable. The cleat cover cap carries over as well. Older Speedplay Walkable Zero type cleats and pedals are cross compatible with the new Wahoo offered cleats and pedals. X-Series are not. A #2 Phillips head screwdriver is used to adjust the float rotation, release angle.

Thanks to the pedal and cleat design, as well as as the stock 53mm Q-factor, the Speedplay Zero has a best in class 39 degree cornering clearance. Obviously that is reduced with the longer lengths, but still more than competitive with competitor pedal body models with extended length spindles. The low, efficient stack height of the pedal-cleat system is again tops, though it varies with your shoe cleat interface, at 11.5mm with 3 hole set-ups, or ultra low at 8.5mm with the rare 4-hole option. Please know that some smaller shoes or shoes with more curvature in the cleat mounting zone may not sit flush, though you have the ability to make this work in most cases.

Overall, time will tell if Wahoo has nailed their engineering fixes, but the company is confident. All of the great features you loved with Speedplay are here in the Wahoo version, along with axle length options, and for cyclists who prize impressively durable performance and longevity the Zero is the top choice. The Zero has become the best selling Wahoo Speedplay pedal, and for all the right reasons.
