Shimano Dura-Ace PD-9100 Pedals

The Shimano Dura-Ace PD-9100 Pedals are the kind of pedal you stop thinking about the moment you click in — and that's exactly what flagship road pedals should be. Built around a carbon-fiber body with stainless steel cleat contact plates, the PD-9100 weighs in at 224g per pair, trimming 24.5g from the previous generation without touching the platform's proven reliability. Three sets of bearings keep the axle spinning smoothly, and the spindle is installed and removed via an 8mm hex key at the back of the crank — no 15mm wrench flats, which keeps the axle as strong as possible.

A 13.7mm stack height keeps your foot close to the axle centerline, and 35 degrees of cornering clearance gives you room to lean hard through corners without interrupting your pedal stroke. The included SM-SH12 cleat offers 2 degrees of float — the middle-ground option in Shimano's three-cleat system. Zero-float (SM-SH10) and 6-degree float (SM-SH11) cleats are available separately. Cleat tension is adjustable via a 2.5mm hex key on the spring-loaded retention plate. A longer-axle variant is available for riders who need additional stance width.
