This is Speedplay’s prototype MTB pedal that they’ve been hinting at for a couple years. It seems like a direct translation of the Zero road pedal to a 2-bolt recessed cleat mount, rather than an evolution of their existing Frog MTB pedal. It looks as if the cleat will allow inward release, something that no current Speedplay allows. As a long time Speedplay user on and off-road, I’m really keen to try these pedals. No release date announced yet.
