Product Description
Durability and stability are the two most important things in an all-mountain pedal, and the Shimano XTR Trail pedal delivers that like no other. Expanding on the XTR Race's already wide platform, the XTR Trail also adds an integrated cage into the equation, which further supports your footwear and aids in difficult uphill starts and other tense clip-in situations. It also features the same wider bearing stance and ovalized axle body for improved mud-shedding. Includes one pair of two-bolt SPD cleats.

Best clipless ever for me!
By RiverScout
I used Shimano M324 for 3 years and just upgraded to these. It's expected that the new top of the line XTR would be better in every way. These pedals didn't disappoint! I was almost used to "hot spots" on the ball of my shoe at the cleat. I've had none of that in the rides since switching. The platform of these pedals provides a pretty wide point of contact under your foot. I feel more stable and strong power transfer into the pedal on strokes.If you've used SPD cleats before- these work the same. I adjusted the tension to be "loose" so I could rapidly unclip if I needed to get free. It's very natural & quick to snap in or snap out. (I didn't unintentionally unclip one time) My rides since the upgrade have all been dry ground, so I can't speak to how they'll perform in heavy mud and gunk.I think these pedals look great, have low weight (for so much material) and work perfectly.

Shimano XTR PD 985 Pedals that worked as expected
By RBar
Right off the bat on my first ride in it, the pedal passed the test on one of my muddiest ride after the rains in So Ca. Obviously we had to walk some part in the mud to minimize trail damage and it was all sticky. The four hour ride did not allow us to clean our shoes, pedals and tires thoroughly. And where ridable, I never experienced problems clicking in and out of this pedal despite it being packed with clay mud. The cleats or shoe just pushed the muck out with ease. Cleaning the pedals after the ride with mild flowing water was easy. Just like cleaning any pedal, you may need to nudge off any dried up mud with a stick, plastic rod or something similar. Moist clay would clear smoothly from tight spaces. Re oiling was easy after drying. Since you will only want to spend once on pedals, you won't be disappointed. I give it a 5 star for not having to worry about clicking in and out of my pedals during the entire ride.

Excellent Pedals
By Ryan
These pedals are definately high quality. They work great. Clip right in and clip right out with no problems at all. The only reason I rate a 4 star instead of a 5 star is because when comparing these to the XT pedals, there is very little difference. Definitely not enough difference to make up the considerable price jump. My wife got the XT pedals and I couldn't tell the difference. If I were to buy again, I would buy the XT pedals only because they are half the price and pretty much identical in every way. With the XTR pedals, you're basically paying double for the "r" tacked on to the XT.Don't get me wrong, I love the pedals. I just recommend going with the XT's to get virtually the same product for half the price.
