Product Information
Full details
The Time ATAC XC Pedals are designed for competitive cross-country, cyclocross, and gravel riders who prioritize efficient power transfer and reliable performance in adverse conditions. Their standout feature is the self-cleaning ATAC engagement system, which remains functional even in heavy mud or debris, though users should be aware that the specific release feel may differ from traditional road-style clipless systems.

FAQs
What is the weight of the Time ATAC XC Pedals?
Each pedal weighs 145g, making for a total system weight of 290g.
Do these pedals come with cleats?
Yes, the pedals include a set of ATAC Easy cleats.
Can I use these pedals on a road bike?
While intended for XC and gravel, they can be used on a road bike provided you use shoes compatible with two-bolt cleats.
How do I adjust the spring tension?
There is a three-position switch on the side of the pedal body that you can toggle to increase or decrease the release resistance.
What is the release angle?
The pedals have a 10-degree release angle when used with the included ATAC Easy cleats.
Are these pedals fully waterproof?
The pedals feature sealed bearings designed to keep out water and grit, though they should be cleaned after exposure to severe conditions.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty engaging the cleat
Check the spring tension setting; it may be set too high. Also, verify that your shoe sole is not interfering with the pedal body.
Pedal feels 'sticky' or does not release smoothly
Inspect the cleat for wear and ensure the spring mechanism is clear of packed mud or trail debris.
Lateral movement feels excessive
Verify that your cleats are not worn down. If movement is still excessive, consider checking the tension adjustment to increase spring resistance.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward; use an 8mm hex key to secure the pedals to your crank arms. Ensure that you grease the threads lightly before installation to prevent seizing.
Compatibility: These pedals are compatible with any standard two-bolt mountain bike shoe (SPD-style). Ensure you install the provided ATAC cleats with the correct orientation as indicated by the markings (Right/Left).
Care: The pedals are largely maintenance-free due to their open design. After exceptionally muddy rides, rinse the pedal bodies with a low-pressure stream of water. Occasionally check the spring tension mechanism to ensure no debris has lodged in the adjustment switch, and verify that your cleat bolts remain tight.
