Shimano Ultegra PD-R8000-E1 SPD-SL Pedals

The Shimano Ultegra PD-R8000-E1 road pedals use the three-bolt SPD-SL cleat system. They are designed for riders using road cycling shoes who want an axle that is 4 mm longer.

• Long axle, +4 mm: more space between shoe and crank arm, useful if you need extra clearance
• Lightweight: approximately 248 g per pair, carbon composite body
• Your foot stays close to the pedal thanks to a stack height of just 15.8 mm
• Float of ±3° per side, 6° in total, to reduce strain on the knee
• Yellow SM-SH11 cleats included in the box, compatible with three-bolt shoes
