Graduating from look Easy pedals

Germancarfan · 01-07-2014 2:15pm #1

Looking for some guidance please.

New to road cycling and went with look easy pedals to start with.
Finding them a bit too floaty now that I am over the initial fear of snotting myself at a set of lights and with look easy's there's no float adjustment.

Any recommended path for graduation to the next level ?

Cheers

its the cleat that decides the amount of "float" not the pedal.

what colour are your current cleats?

You mean there's no allen key tension adjuster on the pedal OP?
I find the Look Keo 2 Max Carbon's to be very good.
Nice wide platform and easier to engage/disengage than the Look Easy.

(You'll pick up a s/h pair for 60 or 70 quid)

Current ones are grey so the mid level float.

Correct - Look Keo easys have no adjustment at all. I just find them a little sloppy for want of a better description

i use the keo 2 max and i think they are abit tighter than the easy imho, i use grey cleats aswell. i had red and thought there were awful. zero confidence.

I tried the Easys at first because I thought they'd be er..."easy" to use.
I didn't like them at all, the keo max 2 is much better.
I'm on grey cleats as well btw.
