Even the stock SL pedals are significantly lighter than Record, due to the aluminum cages versus the steel cages. My scales register a 74g difference per pair. And the SL pedals get even lighter as they age, due to the high wear rate of the aluminum cages! They really should have been re-designed with a replaceable cage but that would have mitigated the weight savings and replacement sales. Still, my aluminum cage MKS Unique clones don't wear nearly as fast.
