It's time to replace the old Looks, they've given out. I'm now faced with a quandry... More Looks, move to Speedplay or try the (newish) Shimano platform. The three that are duking it out are:
Shimano Ultegra (any reason to move to DA except for the weight?)
Speedplay Zeros
Look PP247 (on sale at Performance)
Not trying to start a "mine are better than yours" thread, but I'm having a hard time deciding. I'm not trying to match a platform across bikes so it really doesn't matter what I choose. I'm leaning toward the Shimano's as they seem to have a lot of the Look's benefits without the weight. The high cleat cost of the Speedplays and heavy cleats seem to outweigh much of the lighter pedal benefits--and I really don't need all the float for knee problems. I've got some '03 Sidi's so all seem relatively compatible with the shoes.
Any suggestions? I've read through the reviews and seems like there are upsides for all of them.
Thanks!
