Shimano ultegra pedals Vs look keo blade 2 (max / non max)
Moderator: robbosmans
Hi,
Looking into updating my pedals (keo carbon / Cromo axle) into something newer.
looking around, seems like both the new ultegra carbons (PD 6800) as well as the keo 2 blade (or max blade) can fit the budget...
So, any advantage of the ultegra's over the keos (riding Look all my life... but read quite a bit re shimano reliability) ?
(it goes on a Look 595 with campagnolo group... so really need a good reason to throw shimano on it )
thanks

On the pedals, Look is less than 10 gram lighter. On the cleats, Shimano is better to walk.
Thanks everyone.
Nothing i do not like regarding the Look's... wandered if there is much more to the shimano's.
from the replies, they are close. as i like & ride Look... my money will go there
(nothing against shimano though, just like the "little guys")

Happy customer here on Shimano pedals. I did something a little unorthodox for someone on a high end road bike--XTR M9000 pedals(spd type). They look great , weigh a few grams less and are practical.
