Time created its first clipless pedal in 1986 and has brought us quite a few memorable models over the years: The Equipe Titan Mag, DH, Impact, RXS, iClic, ATAC, etc.

I spent most of my time riding Time ATACs on dirt. I still have the original pair that my local shop mechanic, Tyson, recommended back in 1997/8. The bearing’s a bit rough now, but it’s still one of my go-to bikes even though I have a pair of XC6. They perform just as well on mountain as on gravel.

2019 marks the french firm’s entry into gravel-specific pedals and I am pretty stoked. It is as if Time decided to fuse together the best of their road tech with their mountain bike to create the Cyclo.

What you’ll get is a single-sided ATAC clamping mechanism (and together, the proven two-bolt ATAC cleat) with a refined IClic retention system that pre-opens the clamps whenever the user unclips for easier entry. For all you number nerds, the Cyclo comes with a 1090 mm² of contact area, +/- 5° angular freedom, +/-2.5 mm lateral freedom, 19mm stack height, plus a 53mm Q-factor.

Three models will be offered starting late November: A $130, carbon-bodied Cyclo 10 with a claimed 128 grams per pedal; a $110 composite-bodied Cyclo 6 at 129 grams per side; and lastly $70 for the 145 gram Cyclo 2. All three models roll on steel bearings with hollow steel axles. The 10 and the 6 come with micro adjustable tension systems while the 2 will be preset at the factory.
