  1. 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

  2. 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🙂

  3. 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.
