The Lite Pedal seen to the left is the lightest pedal on the market today. At a mere 31 grams each (approximately 1.2 oz) of rotating weight, Lite pedals by AeroLite use less physical energy. The pedal is constructed of aerospace grade titanium 6A-4V, and Turcite®. The bearing surface is then hand finished. This pedal is also the strongest on the market. They have been independently* stress-tested to over 3600 foot-pounds in a shear-crack test.
The cleat is designed of DuPont Zytel® ST nylon and is formed to wrap around the pedal with a maximum of 1320 pounds of tension to keep you attached to the pedal until you are ready to get out. When you want out, just lift the inside edge of your foot and you are out. The cleat can be mounted to most popular shoes, including the SPD floating mounts. Custom mounting is also available from AeroLite.
When the cleat and pedal are placed together, they are still the lightest on the market and weigh in at less than 100 grams (approximately 3.5 ounces). In addition to being lighter than any other pedal on the market, they cost less.
The clips may be mounted to the shoe in one of two ways. The pedal may be screwed into an SPD mount on the shoe by using the two machine screws in the bottom of the clip, as shown in the pedal on the left, or it may be screwed directly to the sole of the shoe using the four screws on the outside of the clip.
Mounting and dismounting the pedal is easy; press on; roll off, as shown below
