Robust Performance

You need a pedal that can handle the roughest terrain. An integrated cage on the PD-M8120 protects the binding mechanism against impacts like rock strike. The chrome-molly spindle is strong and durable, using an 8mm hex wrench mount. The retention claws are robust and ensure smooth engagement and release, however rough it gets.

Superior Bike Control

The PD-M8120 is specifically engineered to enhance bike control. The large contact surface area between the pedal and shoe provides a stable platform when climbing and descending. The lower platform height promotes pedaling stability and efficient power transfer. The integrated cage increases your control when you’re not clipped in.

Great!

"Great!"

Collin D. (5/5)

Love these pedals

"I rode on Campy Record Profit pedals for decades. I find these Shimano pedals to be far superior. High quality, easy entry and exit, solid platform for this 73-year old rider."

Greg R. (5/5)

Heaven on the trails

"I bought the Simano M8120 pedals got my carbon fiber bike and I love them. Easy to get in and out. Perfect control with them. I bought a second pair for my second carbon bike too. Next bike I get will have them without a doubt. Fantastic clipless system for trail riding."

Absolutely love these 8120’s

"The 8120 took me to another level of trail riding. I bought my second set of pedals for my carbon fiber bikes. I’m a novice to clipless pedal riding and I plan on converting the rest of my bikes with this pedal. Fantastic design. I can clip in and out effortlessly. They make almost seem intuitive. I’m in my 70’s and I ride 3 to 4 times per week 60 to 80 miles per week."

Bombproof SPD pedals

"After riding my M540 pedals into the ground over the past decade, I decided to buy a new set of pedals, and these caught my eye. I really liked the "platform" feature (Shimano calls it a "cage" but whatever) that surrounds the basic SPD clips I was already used to. Seemed like it would make them more comfortable to ride with my regular shoes (ex: just cruising around town and don't want to wear my cleated MTB shoes). That ended up being true. For this review's built-in questions of "How did you find the ventilation" and "How would you rate the value," I answered both with 4/5 stars and 5/5 stars respectively. What really makes these pedals shine is their durability. They're bombproof. In learning new trails, I usually end up taking a good number of spills (hey, it is what it is) and incurring a fair quantity of pedal-strikes on rocks. These pedals just keep on going, and I credit that to the "platform" feature I mentioned earlier. It protects the clip mechanism from front/back impacts. I guess it does leave the pedal vulnerable to top/bottom impacts, but those seem like a very slight possibility to me and the front/back protection is what I'd say benefits most riders. So, great job on that design feature. The CrMo spindle is tough, and it's thicker/stouter than the XTR spindle so it's gonna exhibit better rigidity. My wife and I both use these pedals. Many miles, and zero problems. Set it and forget it!"

Q&A

My 8mm hex does not seem to fit. What size is required or do I need a special wrench.
Hello Dan, To install the pedals, you’ll need an 8 mm hex on the end of the spindle—no other special tools are required. Please be mindful of the specific right and left-hand threads, and ensure they are being installed on the correct side. We recommend applying a light layer of grease and torquing the pedals to 35–55 N·m. If you need any further assistance, please feel free to call or message our customer service team directly [here](https://ride.shimano.com/pages/contact-us).
Hello Where I can find basics tech info for PD M-8120. Weight, height, flotation etc. I cannot find on ride.shimano.com. Bests Armand
Hello Armand, The PD-M8120 Deore XT Trail pedal on average weigh in at 438g a pair. Stack height is 16.2mm. You can find those and other details [here](https://bike.shimano.com/en-US/product/component/deore-xt-m8100/PD-M8120.html). Cleat (included SM-SH51) float is approximately 4 degrees, requiring about 13 degrees to release from the pedal.
Hi, I am currently riding flat pedals, however I have some XT PD8120 pedals that I have had issues clipping out. I took my pedal and had them checked out and the bike shop indicated that my Specialized shoes were probably not a good match with those pedals. Can you recommend a good Trail shoe for me. Not sure it matters however I usually buy a ladies shoe.
Hi Randi, we recommend you contact our customer service team using the Contact Us page. There are a few variables that would influence a proper recommendation. Please include type of riding and budget in your message as well. We're here to help.
