Look Keo Carbon Pedals Review And Highlights

The Look Keo Carbon pedal embodies the perfect balance between weight and performance. Twenty years back when Look first invented the clip less pedal it then too was the benchmark for all others that followed. At one time Shimano pedals could use Look made cleats and also you can easily see today similarities again with Shimano's use of a Look cleat look alike (no pun intended) within their SPD-SL design.
With the Keo's launch in 2005, Look re-established themselves as the pedal authority. Developing a pedal having an injection molded carbon body, famous Look bearings, ultra low stack height, and all at 115grams/pedal.
Look fans have been awaiting this kind of innovation. Where as in the past, Look pedals were always heavier than the competition, Look has set the bar for ultra light full carbon body pedals!
The injection molded carbon body is light and stunning to appear at. The resulting stack height on this body is considerably reduced. The body is mated to a cromoly axle and runs silky smooth on the best bearings in the industry – or so we think.
This ultra low stack height is accompanied by a a} new cleat. The design is slightly small compared to the original delta cleat and contains the addition of Teflon to reduce stick and noise. We think the brand new cleat is perfect there are still no hot spot issues on your own sole. In addition to the Teflon and slight reduction in size, Look has added a cleat memory tab. This part stays stuck to your shoe sole and makes changing cleats much simpler.
The final result can be a pedal/cleat combination that's light, quiet, stunning in appearance, simple to clip in, and out and reasonably priced. We are hard pressed to look for a better product.
