Default Look Keo Pedals

For those interested in a light pedal, I have bought and tried the Look Keo Blade pedals.

They are smaller and lighter than the Delta pedals at 230 grams per pair. The spring isn't metal but a carbon fiber plate that seems to work quite well.

The one problem is that they are so light that they do not rotate into the proper position to easily click into them. The low friction of the bearings is almost to high to allow them to rotate reliably. Now perhaps the bearing seals will wear in and allow the pedals to be more reliably rotated so I'll see about that.


I use these pedals for a year now and this still sucks. Since I got Garmin Vector 3 pedals which are Look compatible I had to change the pedals on my other bikes to Look in order to use the same shoes. The Garmin Vector 3 pedal are much better balanced than the Keo blades and much better positioned to clip in.
Comming from Speedplay I am spoiled though.
