Look Keo 2 Max Pedals

These pedals are simply fantastic from a power transfer standpoint. The very large footprint makes it feel like your feet are part of the crank and distributes pressure across the ball of your foot very well.

About the only complaint I have is that they can be difficult to snap in. Though the pedal is weighted in such a way that it naturally wants to line up in an easy position for entry, anything but a perfectly smooth push off means the pedal will rotate and you may have to fiddle a bit to reliably lock in.

If you do go with these pedals (which I recommend), purchase a pair of Look Cleo Cleat Covers. Throw them in your jersey pocket and put them on if you hit any place where you'll be walking around. Your cleats will last twice as long.

I haven't used a wide variety of road pedals because I switched from SPDs to Keos and I like them very much so I stick with them. I'd like to try Speedplays but I don't like the idea that the mechanical side of the cleat in attached to my shoe so whenever I walk I'm getting dirt and grit into the moving side. The Keos give me a great distribution of force over a large portion of my forefoot and I have the option for several different float options. I prefer the reds on my road bike and greys on my TT bike.

I bought these pedals to replace my old Keo Sprint pedals. There really wasn't anything wrong with the old pedals, but I had about 25,000 miles on them and I simply wanted new pedals.

The Keo 2 Max pedals are noticeably lighter than the Keo Sprints. They are easy to click in and even easier to click out than the Sprints were. At the same time, I never feel like I'm going to accidentally pull my foot out of the pedal. I've already put about 1000 miles on these pedals and they are absolutely quiet even though I'm using cleats that have about 5000 miles on them. (It used to drive me crazy how my earlier (pre-Keo) Look pedals would start to squeak when the cleats started to wear.) The contact area on the Keo 2 Max is a little larger than on the Sprints, but I don't really notice the difference.

For $135 these are a great value. The real weight weenies might want to splurg and go for the carbon version of these pedals ($190). I can only imagine what the $380 Blade Carbon Ti pedals would be like, but I'm more than happy with these pedals.

Pretty in White. A great deal for under a hundred. Keo's are like Timex's keep on ticking.

I was fortunate to catch a sale on this pedal and wanted to get a second pair of Looks so I could put my old road bike with my old pedals on a training stand. What a surprise. These pedals feel better than the basic Keo Classic. I believe the that is because platform is a tad wider. They seem to be a little easier to get oriented so I can clip in quickly too. This pedal is more comfortable than the classic and it is worth the extra bucks to opt for them especially if you are planning to log a lot of miles. Time it right so you get a good sale price from BTD and you are way ahead!

I've recently switched from Shimano road pedals to these Look pedals, and I really like them. Entry is pretty easy for a road pedal, exiting is super simple, and they have just enough float for me using the supplied gray cleats.

Only one downside, and this is common to most road pedals. The cleats wear out if you walk very much on them. These seem to be holding up better than the Shimano cleats, so hopefully I can get a season (4000 miles) of riding before buying new cleats.

I like the locked-in feel of the pedal and cleat and these pedals deliver that. Much better than the old Keo design and, hopefully, they dont wear down like the non-reinforced ones.

Unfortunately, I can no longer tolerate the old Keo's on my other bike even though they are nearly new,
