Further to this, I just checked my Look Keo 2 Max "Carbon" pedals, and the _RHS_ pedal threaded collar on the spindle has a *left hand* thread, where as the _LHS_ pedal threaded collar has a *right hand* thread. The opposite "handedness" to the axle/crank threads. One would expect that the Frogs would understand the process by which pedals don't normally loosen from cranks by now, and have chosen the thread direction of the threaded collar to also not loosen under _normal_ riding conditions. I note that if the pedal bearing is near seized, the action of pedalling can override the normal precession force, and in which case the pedal will unwind from the crank. I also took a moment to check out my Shimano double sided SPD pedals on the MTB. PD-M540. The construction of the bearing retaining assembly looks remarkably similar. A threaded collar on the spindle. In this video, the author also notes that the LHS pedal collar is RH threaded and vice versa. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=utLU4kAHk_Q -- JS |
