The pedals thread into your bike’s cranks with a standard 8mm hex key.Ĭlaimed weight for the Zeros is 222g, and my test set weighed 216g on my scales.
With hex key installation, the pedal design is simple and elegant. The adapter plate affords a good amount of fore-aft cleat adjustment, while the cleat has a range of side-to-side adjustment.įitting cleats to standard three-hole shoes involves fixing the adapter plates to the sole of your shoe with the appropriate length screws (two options are provided), screwing the cleats to the adapter plates, and then fitting the walkable covers onto the cleats. Zero cleats are four-hole in their native state and there are (or at least, were) a handful of shoes on the market that accept them directly, but the vast majority of riders will be using the three-hole to four-hole adapters Wahoo includes in the box, with shims to fit the majority of road shoes. The Zero pedal is essentially a small, round body riding on bearings, and the engagement mechanism is built into the cleat, which fits over the pedal. Functionally, it’s identical to the £134.99 / $149.99 / €149.99 chromoly spindle model, the Wahoo Speedplay Comp, but it’s a handful of grams lighter, prettier and less likely to develop rust on the spindle – this was always the issue with the classic Zero Chromoly. The Wahoo Speedplay Zero is the mid-range option with stainless steel spindles. Where the original design required regular injections of grease to keep spinning, the Wahoo Speedplays use sealed-for-life bearings, and maintenance is limited to occasionally lubing the cleats.
It now comprises four road pedals, with a power meter model yet to be launched. Wahoo’s acquisition of the Speedplay brand saw a complete revamp of the pedal range for 2021. Here’s everything you get in the box with the new Speedplay Zero.
