The Shimano Dura-Ace PD-R9300 is Shimano’s flagship road racing pedal, featuring the new SPD-SLR cleat and pedal system.
SPD-SLR System: Replaces the legacy SPD-SL design with a lower stack height (distance from the center of the pedal axle to the shoe sole), better stability, and easier clip-in engagement.
Compatible cleat: SPD-SLR (Red, Blue, Yellow, Grey)
Cleat stack height reduction: 2.3mm versus previous SPD-SL cleat
Cleat engagement angle: 10.5° (down from 15.5° on previous SPD-SL)
Cleat weight reduction: Up to 25% lighter than outgoing SPD-SL
