Time has launched a new lightweight pedal, the XPro 12 SL, alongside a remodelling of its pedal range.
The XPro 12 SL is claimed to be the lightest road pedal on the market today and comes with a very high price tag of £440 / $440 / €490.
Elsewhere, the brand has consolidated its complete pedal line-up across road, gravel and MTB to make it easier to understand (and in some cases, cheaper).
New XPro 12 SL flagship road pedal

Time claims the XPro 12 SL pedals weigh 87g each (or 259g a pair with cleats), making them the lightest road pedals on the market.
The weight has been saved through premium specifications, including ceramic bearings, hollow titanium axles and a carbon-injected composite body with inset stainless steel plates.
The XPro 12 SL has a new three-setting spring tension adjuster for the carbon spring mechanism, and three options on axle length to suit your fit data.

The narrowest of the three axle lengths is also claimed to benefit riders looking to get the narrowest Q-factor, which in turn should reduce frontal area.
The XPro 12 SL’s design also has a fairing under the pedal body, to provide an aero advantage.
The platform design is larger at a claimed 725mm2, compared to the original Xpresso's 700mm2.
The XPro 12 SL design carries a rider weight limit of 90kg.

Underpinning the flagship pedal is the XPro 12, which features steel bearings and a ‘standard’ titanium axle. The concessions still make for a remarkably light pedal at a claimed 273g a pair, including cleats (94g per pedal)
These cost less at £160 / $160 / €180.
The start of the XPro range comes in the form of the XPro 10, which comes with steel bearings and a steel axle. This has a total claimed system weight of 310g (113g per pedal).

On the scales, our XPro 10 pedals come in at 227g (113.5g apiece), plus 88g for the cleats and bolts (315g system weight).
Xpresso line refresh
![Time Xpresso No 6](https://c02.purpledshub.com/uploads/sites/39/2024/04/XPRESSO-No-6.jpeg?webp=1&w=1200)
Time’s entry-level Xpresso road pedals are now available in two models: the Xpresso 6 sees a glass-injected composite body with steel contact plates, while the Xpresso 4 has a reinforced composite body.
These don’t come with spring-tension adjustment, but use the same cleats as the XPro pedals – you can opt for Time’s iClic ‘free-float’ cleats to take advantage of the +/- 5 degrees of angular float and +/- 1.25mm of lateral float, or use Time’s fixed (zero float) iClic cleats.
![Time Xpresso No 4](https://c02.purpledshub.com/uploads/sites/39/2024/04/XPRESSO-No-4.jpeg?webp=1&w=1200)
Both weigh in at a claimed 315g system weight, though. The Xpresso 6’s steel inserts are claimed to bring better protection from wear.
The Xpresso 6 is priced at $95 / €105 / £95, with the Xpresso 4 now priced lower than before, at $65 / €70 / £65 (down from $90 / €100 / £75).
New Speciale 12 MTB pedals
![Time Speciale No 12 - Large](https://c02.purpledshub.com/uploads/sites/39/2024/04/Speciale-No-12-Large.jpeg?webp=1&w=1200)
The new Speciale 12 is aimed at professional-level enduro, downhill and trail riders.
It features an alloy anodised body for resilience against rock strikes and a titanium axle.
It’s now available in two sizes: ‘large’ (with a 69x90mm platform) ostensibly for downhill and enduro use, and ‘small’ (64x80mm), which is said to be suitable for enduro riding as well as trail.
![Time Speciale No 12 - Small](https://c02.purpledshub.com/uploads/sites/39/2024/04/Speciale-No-12-Small.jpeg?webp=1&w=1200)
The pedal’s spring tension is adjustable via a brass screw on the pedal body and based around Time’s long-standing twin-bar ATAC design – well-regarded for its easy entry and mud-clearing properties.
The Speciale 12 is priced at $350 / €390 / £350 and weighs in at a claimed 180g per pedal (405g system weight) in a size large. The system is said to weigh 395g in the smaller size.
![Time Speciale No 10 - Large - Purple](https://c02.purpledshub.com/uploads/sites/39/2024/04/Speciale-No-10-Large-Purple.jpeg?webp=1&w=1200)
Below this, the Speciale 10 shares a similar design with the same two size options. This cheaper option ($180 / €200 / £180) features a hollow steel axle and is available in new anodised colour options: purple, 'Tangerine', ‘Raw’ and dark grey.
The Speciale 10 pedals weigh in at a claimed 202g each (450g including cleats) for a size large, and 197g (440g system) for a size small.
ATAC range consolidation
![Time ATAC XC No 12](https://c02.purpledshub.com/uploads/sites/39/2024/04/ATAC-XC-No-12.jpeg?webp=1&w=1200)
The ATAC range is reduced from five models to three, with an updated XC12 at the top of the range.
This is Time’s lightest off-road offering aimed at XC, gravel and cyclocross racing at the highest level, featuring a hollow oversized titanium axle and carbon-injected composite body.
The ATAC pedals' wide angle of float and easy entry are said to make them popular with riders prone to knee pain issues.
![Time ATAC XC No 6](https://c02.purpledshub.com/uploads/sites/39/2024/04/ATAC-XC-No-6.jpeg?webp=1&w=1200)
The XC12s weigh in at a claimed 120g each, with a 285g total system weight. They are priced at $295 / €330 / £295.
The XC12s are joined by the XC10s ($150 / €165 / £150), which weigh in at 325g total, and the XC6s at 345g total ($90 / €100 / £90).
MX series
![Time ATAC MX No 6](https://c02.purpledshub.com/uploads/sites/39/2024/04/ATAC-MX-No-6.jpeg?webp=1&w=1200)
The MX is Time’s all-rounder mountain bike pedal with a more compact platform than the Speciale, made from lightweight injected glass-fibre composite.
The range is now down to two models from three, with a price reduction for the MX4 ($65 / €70 / £65 from $90 / €100 / £75 – the old MX2 entry-level pedal’s pricing).
They share the same twin-bar ATAC design for free movement and mud clearance, but with the addition of a more rugged platform, according to Time.
![Time ATAC MX No 4](https://c02.purpledshub.com/uploads/sites/39/2024/04/ATAC-MX-No-4.jpeg?webp=1&w=1200)
The range-topping MX6 comes with a hollow steel axle and composite body, with a claimed system weight of 425g (190g per pedal), priced at $95 / €105 / £95.
The MX4 shares the same composite body and ATAC retention system, but with a solid steel axle. This is priced at $65 / €70 / £65 and carries a claimed system weight of 430g, or 192g per pedal.
Urban Link
![Time Link pedal](https://c02.purpledshub.com/uploads/sites/39/2024/04/LINK.jpeg?webp=1&w=1200)
Time's final pedal in its line-up is the urban-focused Link.
This pedal uses a single-sided version of the twin-bar ATAC design with a sculpted shoe-holding platform on the other side.
The Link weighs in at a claimed 390g for the system and retails for $65 / €70 / £65. It’s unchanged, bar a reduction in price from the previous $79 / €74 / £68.
