Look Kéo Blade CARBON pedal

Light, aerodynamic & powerful: Kéo Blade Carbon
The new KEO BLADE CARBON is designed to win and improve the experience with spring blade technology in clipless pedals. This new version is the result of the experience of many years of technical development in our factory and constant improvements in daily contact with the greatest cycling champions. The new KEO BLADE CARBON is light, aerodynamic, powerful and has all the advantages that allow you to improve your performance and optimize it towards victory. That's why many cycling champions unanimously chose the KEO BLADE CARBON as their pedal of choice and used it as a weapon to achieve their greatest victories. The KEO BLADE CARBON therefore benefits from the best weight/performance ratio in its category. The spring leaf is fully integrated into the new design, which guarantees unsurpassed aerodynamics. The Blade Carbon with body and spring leaf made of carbon with steel axles weighs 110 grams per pedal.

Optimized axle line, greater power transmission and reliability
The axle line of the new BLADE CARBON CERAMIC has been completely rethought. It is built around an oversized axle and a cross-sectional axis line consisting of an internally positioned ceramic bearing under the bearing surface. This new design makes it possible to gain approximately 2 watts at 100 revolutions/minute.
The distance between the ball bearing and the sleeve needle bearing has been increased by 25%. This ensures more rigidity across the entire axle line and consequently improves power transmission.
Particular attention was also paid to tightness. This has been improved by 120% for increased reliability and longevity. For this purpose, the new axle line received a new cover with an O-ring at its outer end. It is equipped with an internally positioned double lip seal. LOOK axles are only released after a rotation test of 2 million cycles at 100 rpm with a load of 90 kg at the center of the pedal and an eccentric rotation (which causes a shock with each revolution). This corresponds to a sprint by André GREIPEL with 1,700 watts at 100 revolutions/min for 333 hours! This test goes far beyond the applicable ISO 4210 standard.

Super strong support surface
In order to meet the needs of the most demanding riders - namely competitors - the pedal and pedal plate system must allow efficient power transmission with a large and rigid contact surface. The support surface of the BLADE CARBON CERAMIC is provided with a 67 mm wide attached and molded plate made of stainless steel. It optimizes the cleat/pedal contact areas for every pedaling angle. With a contact surface of 700 mm², the BLADE CARBON CERAMIC offers an optimized contact surface for efficient power transmission that is unparalleled on the market.
Their weight/performance ratio is significantly better than that of the competition.

Carbon technology on the pedal body and spring leaf
The use of carbon in the pedal body and spring leaf allows for a lower pedal weight while at the same time being more rigid for better power transmission. BLADE technology is a significant technological innovation in the history of clipless pedals because it provides numerous advantages: low weight, aerodynamics, very safe entry/exit
