>We’ve spotted a prototype version of Shimano’s new clipless road bike pedals on Jasper Phillipsen's Canyon Endurace for Paris-Roubaix 2026.

>At a glance, the overall shape, size and proportions are all very similar to the existing Dura-Ace PD-R9100 pedals. However, a slimmer central section suggests Shimano may be chasing reduced stack height, rather than taking its road bike pedals in a radical new direction.

>The most obvious change is the switch from three stainless steel contact plates to two. These plates are used to reduce wear between the cleat and pedal body.

>The prototype simplifies this layout with a plate on the either side of the pedal.
