PokerFace Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 I want to buy KEO pedals, but which model? KEO Classic = 280gKEO Sprint = 260gKEO Carbon Chromoly = 230gKEO Carbon Titanium = 190g Appart from weight (which obviously means different material) and price, is there any other advantage of having the more expensive KEOs?
bob_the_builder Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Yes, you can say you have more expensive pedals
PokerFace Posted January 17, 2008 Author Posted January 17, 2008 So it's ALL about weight? Buy the lightest pedal you can afford. PokerFace2008-01-17 05:46:58
mon-goose Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 I don't know why but I'm going with the sprint. CWC had them for R700. Don't see the benefit of going for the expensive option unless you have money or are seriously worried about weight.

Don't see the benefit of going for the expensive option unless you have money or are seriously worried about weight. Exactly what I'm thinking. If there is no other advantage than weight, then I'm happy to have 30g or 70g heavier pedals on my bike.

ewep Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 PF, except for some cosmetics and a bigger hole in the pedal, the ONLY diff is the weight and material, period.
American Flyers Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Most riders go for Classics because it is cheaper. I believe there is another KEO pedal that go for +-R500 and I am not sure of the weight.
Mr LOOK Posted January 17, 2008 Posted January 17, 2008 Hi Guys. The cheaper Keo is called the KEO Easy...and retails for around R470. The Keo Sprints a pretty good. There is loads of Pro's in Europe using them. The moment you move to Carbon...you get better bearings...and of course the BLING factor.
