I'm used to 23mm Grand Prixs on my single bike. We want to use SPD mountain cleats so I'm trying to get the Xpedo M-Force 8Ti pedals (215g/pr) but they're out of stock. Hopefully they'll be ready by the time my chainstay tubing arrives so I don't have to settle for their 230g model.
Is this them? Amazon.com : XPEDO Mountain Force XMF08TT M-FORCE 8 Clipless Pedals MTB Bike TI Spindle : Sports & Outdoors

Although I use super stiff carbon soled shoes, I still prefer a pedal system with more platform IRL. For weight weenies I suppose that wouldn't matter.
