While the full lineup ranges from $449.99 for the NANO down to $149.99, the ZERO pedals have a retail price of $229.99 and stainless steel spindle. In this review, we’ll be looking at the SPEEDPLAY ZERO which represents that best value in the lineup. The NANOs are the top-of-the-line option with titanium spindles and a carbon composite body while the lesser version use Stainless steel or Chromoly and Grivory bodies (a thermoplastic material). The differences between the models are the spindle and body material.

Wahoo currently offers four versions of the SPEEDPLAY pedals: NANO (“ultralight performance”), ZERO (“race-grade performance”), COMP (“all-around performance”) and AERO (“streamlined performance”). The new Wahoo SPEEDPLAY pedals retain the same iconic design but are updated with sealed bearings for easier maintenance, hex hardware, and a revised pedal body. Wahoo has decided to change that with their purchase of SPEEDPLAY and the newly introduced revamped SPEEDPLAY pedals. However, in more recent years Shimano SPD-SL and Look Keo pedals have come to dominate the road cycling pedal market. Known as the lollipop pedals, SPEEDPLAY gained popularity with amateur and professional cyclists due to their dual-sided design and low stack height.

Originally patented in 1989, SPEEDPLAY pedals represented a clean slate approach to road cycling pedals and offered innovative features.
