Look Cycle Keo Grip Road Cleat Red One Size

Gutes produkt

I'm currently using Look's KEO Classic pedals on my road bike, and I bought a set of these cleats thinking they'd come in handy at lunch stops, store stops, and controles on brevets and other long one-day rides (for overnight tours, I use my 'cross/gravel/touring bike, on which I keep mountain-bike style clipless touring pedals). It turns out that they also come in really handy when you leave home without a spare tube or patch kit, intending to buy a tube on the way out, forget to buy the tube, flat 14 miles into your ride, and then have to walk through a grocery store to the nearest ATM and an additional mile to the nearest bus stop with a printed schedule available (um ... not that this has ever happened to me, of course ... heh). While true weight weenies might want a lighter cleat for racing, Look's Grip Cleats offer a great balance between weight and functionality. Clipping in and out is a breeze (no more difficult than with plain KEO cleats), and when you find yourself forced to walk on a slick surface in your team kit, you don't suddenly feel like you're in an underfunded production of "Superheroes on Ice" (though, I will own, one does still look and sound pretty ridiculous clopping through a supermarket in road bike shoes). It's worth noting that there *is* a lot of float in these cleats. That's great for someone like me -- I broke my left tibia a couple years back it healed just a bit out of alignment, which can make adjusting bike cleats very difficult -- but might not be everyone's cup of tea. One last thing: I got a set of Kool Kovers to go with these (stupidly hoping to preserve the grippy areas!), but it turns out that the height added to the cleats by the rubber grippy sections means they don't stay on very well. I stuck them on and lost one almost immediately (somewhere in the city of Louisville, there is probably a dog with a very odd toy that it found on a walk -- you're welcome, Fido). Turns out the grippy surfaces on these are grippier than the Kool Kovers anyway. Kool Kovers are a must with plain cleats, but total overkill (and not very effective) with these. In short: Look's KEO Grip cleats are perfect brevet cleats. They're also great for training, probably touring (if you use your road pedals to tour), and even -- if you're someone like me who figures you can definitely shave a few grams off your butt before you start worrying about the weight of your stuff too much -- for racing. Buy them. They're worth it.

Been using these for sometime to replace the Garmin cleat and they are standing up much better, I little harder to unclip but got use to it quickl

came quite fast but the rubber is already coming off even though i don’t walk in them or hit the ground very hard or scrape them on the ground
