WOLF TOOTH MKØ ALT XC CLIPLESS pedals

The WOLF TOOTH MKØ ALT (for Alternative)pedal is the flagship of Wolf Tooth's XC range for 2026. Unlike the DEL (single-sided) version, the ALT offers double-sided engagement, which is essential in XC mountain biking where clips must be instantaneous under full effort.

Thanks to the use of DLC-coated titanium axles and an extremely machined 6061-T6 aluminum body, these pedals achieve an incredible weight of 218 g per pair. They offer a contact area of 505 mm², guaranteeing optimal power transfer and eliminating the floaty feel often blamed on minimalist XC pedals.

Why choose ALT over DEL? The DEL (single-sided) is lighter and more aerodynamic, perfect for Gravel. The ALT is designed for XC mountain biking: the double-sided design means you can reclip without looking at the pedal, which is crucial on technical climbs or after putting your foot down.

Are the pedals resistant to impacts from rocks? Although lightweight, they use robust materials (stainless steel for the clip mechanism). However, like all "Mark Zero" titanium equipment, they require a little more care than a heavy steel model.

Does the DLC coating on the axle wear? DLC is one of the hardest coatings in the world. It protects the axle from abrasive debris and extends bearing life by maintaining a perfectly smooth surface.

Can spring tension be adjusted? Yes, the release tension is adjustable via a small screw, allowing you to choose between a firm hold for sprints or an easier release.
