Summary:
waste of money , after three months pedals show significant wear. Even with spring tension cranked as tight as it goes, on hard accelerations my cleat feels like its pulling up off the pedal body. stack height is higher than other brands.Cleats are not as stable as shimano. Put my dura-ace 7810 back on, couldn't be happier

durability, price, stability, stack height, cleats

Summary:
Stay away.
WQIth hesitation I write this review. I loved these pedals until last week.

Started creeking and then I discovered a full crack through the body (toe end). These were 3 months old - approx 1500km.

As I had purchased O/S during a business trip the warranty is not being honoured in Aus.

I can understand this - but not why they cracked during recreational use after 3 months.

I have photo's if anyone else wants to see.

Strengths:
Light weight

Weaknesses:
Reliability.
Cracking after 3 months is poor.

Bike Setup:

Summary:
I used the Look Carbon Keo Titaniums fro two years with no complaints until on a steep upgrade, while out of the saddle, I snapped the right pedal axle. Luckily I was not hurt. This obviously could have been catastrophic in other circumstances. I'm 6'0", 195 lbs. The bike shop stated that the rider weight limit should be 225 lbs.

Weaknesses:
Prone to complete failure, pricey.

Favorite Ride:

Bike Setup:
Derosa dual, record, eurus wheels, zero g brakes.

Summary:
I have used these pedal for 2 years and loved them with no problems. Then, last weekend the right axel snapped, causing me crash. Just as I stood up and applied power, my leg dropped all the way to the ground, pedal body attached. Fortunately I wasn't seriously hurt, but I did damage my new Sidi shoes, gloves, and ipod remote.
I was on a off street, ped-pathway, but if on the road, I may have crashed into traffic.

Strengths:
easy set up
light weight
clean design
good release mechanism

Weaknesses:
Axels can break with stronger force

Similar Products Used:
Dura ace, older look pedals.
