Time Announces New 'Speciale 8' Enduro Pedal

The Speciale 8 is made with an aluminum body which is slightly more compact than the Speciale 12, four adjustable pins to optimize grip and a micrometric tension system to meet the demands of the most specific riders. Its easy engagement and closure system (ATAC) is well known and allows easy entry and exit even in the most difficult conditions.

ATAC (Auto Tension Adjustment Concept)

ATAC technology was developed by TIME's engineers to make the step-in and step-out easier in our mountain bike pedal range: enduro, cyclocross and cross-country. The step-in is made by 2 movements: one to the bottom of the pedal, and the second downward. Touring/casual cyclists will be familiar with the automatic pedals and racers looking for performance will be out in front when it comes to step-in.

Self-cleaning

Self-cleaning is characterized by an instantaneous cleaning at step-in. This technology is applied to TIME's whole mountain bike range: enduro, cyclocross and cross-country.

Micrometrical adjustment

To make performance and biomechanics one and the same, TIME developed a system on our mountain bike pedals to adjust the spring tension. A touring cyclist looking for an easy step-out could choose the low tension position whereas a racer would opt for the high tension to have more security in extreme conditions.

The Speciale 8 is fully assembled in France in TIME's factory in Never and, as you just watched, the riders Remy Metailler and Nicolas Quéré have already tested and approved the SP8 in all conditions.
