A nice surprise from the Christmas list was a set of Deore XT PD-M8000 pedals.
These will replace my tried and tested Shimano M520s and offer much the same operation I've come to enjoy but with a weight saving of approx 100g.
They also boast a solid platform giving more shoe contact. I'm going to look forward to putting these to the test!
Install is straightforward using a 15mm wrench. I like a firm but not overly tight clip so set the tension right in the middle of the range.
