I prefer Shimano but I bought the Favero Assioma pedals a few years ago before the Shi version came out, I switched over to Look pedals on my other two bikes after that so all cleats were the same but I really miss the Dura Ace. They just work better, more easily adjustable (without replacing blades) and the cleats don't disintegrate as soon as you walk in and out of a coffee shop!

I had the top of the line version 3's and went back to the Keo 2 Max Carbon's. The blades were a nightmare to clip in when you needed to clip in quickly. Also changing the blades is a PITA. The Keo 2's are much simpler to adjust with a simple Allen key.

I've ridden Look for many years, until they fix the durability of their cleats I'm not going back. I currently have Time and Shimano pedals and both last about 10x as long as Look cleats. It's not just that the cleats wear down quickly, but they break under heavy loads like sprinting. Twice I've had reasonably new cleats snap during sprints (both times at the engagement point).

After many years of Look Pedals on different bikes i finally changed to Shimano. Feels so much better, should have done it long time ago. My last Look keo2max had already a little play in the bearings, when they were new. Now 20k later it got quite bad and they were spinning very loose, making it also hard to clip in. Walking in Shimano is also better and the ultegra and dura-ace pedals just look so nice on the bike. But yeah, maybe the blade are better than the keo2max.

I have always been a massive fan of LOOK pedals, basically been using them from day 1 for 20+ years and had no reliability issues… until I bought their V3 ceramic Ti blades! 🙁 Absolutely trash, the axles were loose right out the box and had plenty of play in them. Made noise after only a week of use. The only reason I bought them was for the Titanium axles, I actually never wanted ceramic bearings (because I avoid all hybrid ceramic bearings) but unfortunately they don’t sell a titanium with steel bearings version any more. I have a customer with the steel Ti blades and he has had no issues, it really upsets me having to spend extra money to get the Ti axles and knowing that the bearings you are getting are way worse. Also LOOK have zero customer support, I contacted them several times asking them to sell me the pedal tool as I have a shop and I need it to help service my customers pedals. They never responded. Ended up making my own tool. My advice is stick with the KEO max and Classic and avoid anything with ceramic bearings from LOOK. (If you want reliable pedals.)

How long do ceramic bearings last in pedals? All I hear about CeramicSpeed is how the bearings wear out faster and aren't sealed well and have super thin grease, etc...
@xmilkcratex8 ай бұрын
Ceramic bearings are almost like cup and cone in the sense that they roll really fast but rely on regular service intervals. I personally feel like it should be used for fancy show off bikes or put them on a bike if you know how to service bearings regularly or don't mind having a shop look at them 1-3 times a year. If you just want to put ceramic bearings on a bike, ride your ass off for thousands of miles without thinking about it, probably don't do ceramic. I think it should be left for those who like to tinker with their bike and meticulously clean their bikes. Or rich people who don't care about burning through money and dropping it off at a shop the second something feels off. As far as pedals, I currently have a set of Look Ceramic Ti pedals on my mountain bike. I got them for a killer price so I couldn't say no. I plan on punishing them until they require service. I'll be honest. When it comes to pedals, I care more about that weight savings of Ti vs the efficiency of bearings. I currently have less than a year on them and so far so good but I don't feel optimistic about the results. Mind you, I currently have ceramic bearings in my hubs and bottom bracket and I've had a great experience with them with 2 years of use on my road bike BUT mostly ridden in fair weather conditions. I have a secondary bike that I use to punish in nasty weather conditions. I always think enjoying something like this is about "headspace". I have Dura ace pedals for 5 years with no issues. Still smooth and you can still feel them swimming in grease. I love fixing and cleaning my bikes but servicing my pedals regularly is a stretch even for me. I am still on the fence about going ceramic for pedals. If the mountain bike pedals impress me long term, it might be something I look into for my next pedals.
