Wolf Tooth ALT MTB XC Pedals
The Wolf Tooth ALT MTB XC Pedals are lightweight with a thin profile that gives riders confident control. Machined in Minnesota, USA, they feature a machined aluminum body, stainless steel axle and binding assemblies for durability. The pedals are SPD compatible, offering crisp, reliable engagement and easy release. An open-center design sheds mud easily, while the platform-to-shoe contact improves stability and power transfer. Wolf Tooth achieves this by increasing the usable surface area so pressure goes through the whole pedal, not just the cleat. With an adjustable Q-factor of 51, 55, or 59 mm, riders can fine-tune their stance for a precise fit and comfortable feel.
Pedals include Wolf Tooth SPD cleats. These are for 2-bolt shoes and include all mounting hardware.
Product Details
Key Features of the Wolf Tooth ALT
- Low Stack Height: The thin profile of these pedals reduce rock strikes when pedaling on technical trails.
- Mud Clearing Design: An open center mechanism clears debris at every clip-in, reducing mud related frustrations.
- User Adjustable Q-Factor: The distance the pedal body sits away from the crank arm can be adjusted to 51, 55 and 59 mm, making a perfect fit easy to achieve.
- Shoe Contact Area: The platforms either side of the cleat mechanism help distribute force throughout the entire pedal, instead of just through the cleat. This improves control and power transfer to the bike.
- Low Weight: The Wolf Tooth ALT MTB XC Pedals are very lightweight, especially when compared to other XC clipless pedals that offer a platform.
Compatibility
These pedals are compatible with SPD cleats (included).
Considerations
These pedals are Wolf Tooth’s flagship XC pedals so they get all the bells and whistles, but also the price point to match. Therefore, they might not suit every rider’s budget.
