I've been considering new pedals. The Look Keo Sprint model looks good but I
would like anyones thoughts as to if it is worth upgrading to the Keo Carbon.
About a $70 difference in price.
Thanks

They look cooler🙂
But I seriously doubt you will notice the difference blindfolded.
I do go for looks though if it's not to outrageous, so don't feel bad
if you give in to the SHINY factor🙂
The keo sprint are great, no point spending £100+ on the carbon
pedals, the sprint do just the same job

It depends if the 50 grams a pair weight difference is important to you.

Official-looking quote from somewhere:
A few last notes of interest on the Sprint -- the spring tension is
slightly lower than what you get on the Carbon. The Carbon has a range
of 12-18 Nm, while the Sprint adjusts between 9-15 Nm. Also, the stack
height is slightly higher -- 16.5mm instead of the 15.7mm you get on
the Carbon. And beginning in 2006 all Look pedals with come with Grey
floating cleats that allow 4.5 degrees of float. If your preference is
for no float, or for increased float, Look still makes Black (0
degrees) and Red (9 degrees) cleats in order to accommodate you.
Available in Rouge (red) and Grise (grey).
Weight: 130.0g per pedal.
I forget: Classic, Sprint, Carbon, one more IMS. Release tension
unknown except for above.
The old 5.1 had 12-18 Nm release range according to cat. info. Approx
150g heavier per pair.
