Look PP337 Road Pedal

Price Paid:  $0.00

Favorite Ride:
East Tucson

Bike Setup:
Ti, Dura Ace

Summary:
I have put many miles on my PP206 pedals, which worked great, but I needed another pair of pedals for a new bike. I tried the 337, the float was too restricted, felt very stiff, knees were tight. Maybe others have had better luck with this pedal. Eventually went to the 396, an excellent pedal.

Strengths:
solid, wide platform, easy entry/exit.

Weaknesses:
There may be 6 degrees of float, yet the pedal is so tight, you can't appreciate it. Harder on the knees than other look pedals (PP206 and 396 are much more comfortable).

Price Paid:  $60.00

Favorite Ride:
any road that does not have pot holes

Bike Setup:
Giant TCR ONCE. Alu.
105 Groupie
Mavic cp23 rims.

Summary:
These pedals have huge platforms. So when u're mashing down at the pedals, you can be assured of maximum energy transfer. I've been using egg beaters on my road bike due to it's light weight, but since sacrificing that weight for the look pedals, I can't say I regret that decision. Most significant improvement for me is that I get a lot more power pulling up on the pedal as compared to egg beaters. I'm sure the wide platform has something to do with it.

Strengths:
Wide platform, stable. Easy to clip in and out. I'm not sure about float on these pedals. but I do get tiny movement ( 1 or 2 degrees ) while clipped in. I'm not dead stuck in them.

Weaknesses:
It's a bit heavier than egg beaters. It hurts to buy stuffs and make the bike heavier in the process.

Favorite Ride:
Anywhere there's smooth pavement!

Bike Setup:
Trek 2300, stock set-up.

Summary:
These pedals are the best "improvement" I've made to the bike. Was riding on SPD pedals which were fine. The day I switched to the Look pedals my averag speed increased by 5% over a 40 mile ride. The increase in efficiency makes a big difference. I am climbing with more confidence KNOWING that I will not pull out of the pedals. I love these things!

Strengths:
Easy to clip in/out. Once you're in, you're in. Large platform increases efficiency and energy transfer. Great for climbing.

Weaknesses:
Heavier than other types of pedals, but I'm not a weight-weenie. Only one-sided, so can be tricky getting in on an uphill with a line of traffic behind you.
