Look Kéo Blade Carbon Ceramic Pedals
The new KEO BLADE CARBON CERAMIC is designed to win and improves the experience of spring blade technology in clipless pedals. This new version is the result of the experience of many years of technical development in our factory and constant improvements in daily contact with the greatest champions of cycling.
The new KEO BLADE CARBON CERAMIC is lightweight, aerodynamic, powerful and has all the advantages that will allow you to improve your performance and optimize it to victory. That's why many cycling champions unanimously chose the KEO BLADE CARBON CERAMIC as their bike of choice, using it as a weapon, so to speak, to achieve their greatest victories with it.
The KEO BLADE CARBON CERAMIC thus benefits from the best weight / performance ratio in its category.
The spring blade is fully integrated into the new design, which thus guarantees unsurpassed aerodynamics. The Blade Carbon with body and spring leaf in carbon is available as a version Cr (axle in chromoly +) with 110 g per pedal. It is available in three release hardnesses: 12, 16 and 20.

CERAMIC BEARINGS
Each component, each ball is meticulously selected to ensure the highest level of quality and performance. The balls are individually calibrated by a machine down to the micrometer. They are then arranged by size in perfectly manufactured bearing rings. Thus, each bearing has a completely individual structure.
The main advantage of ceramic bearings is their durability. The harder and more precisely the balls are worked, the less sensitive they are to external influences and dust deposits. This allows for consistent and long-lasting performance. Ceramics are also not subject to the effects of corrosion. These physical properties ensure a service life that is 4 to 6 times longer than that of a standard steel bearing.
Friction reduction is the most distinctive and outstanding advantage of ceramic bearings. The perfect spherical shape, their hardness, coupled with the optimization of the greases used with this material, allows an 18% reduction in the frictional forces exerted on the bearing.
OPTIMIZED AXLE LINE GREATER POWER TRANSMISSION AND RELIABILITY
The axle line of the new BLADE CARBON CERAMIC has been completely rethought. It has been built around an oversized axle and a cross-section axle line consisting of an internally positioned ceramic bearing under the bearing surface. This new design makes it possible to gain approximately 2 watts at 100 rpm.
The distance between the ball bearing and the sleeve needle bearing has been increased by 25%. This provides more stiffness throughout the axle line and consequently improves power transmission.
Particular attention has also been paid to tightness. This has been improved by 120% for increased reliability and durability. To this end, the new axle line has a new cover with O-ring at its outer end. It is equipped with an internally positioned double lip seal.
LOOK axles are released only after a rotation test of 2 million cycles at 100 rpm with a load of 90 kg at the center of the pedal and an eccentric rotation (causing a shock at each revolution). This is equivalent to André GREIPEL sprinting at 1,700 watts at 100 rpm for 333 hours! This test goes far beyond the applicable ISO 4210 standard.
SUPER STRONG SUPPORT SURFACE
To meet the needs of the most demanding riders - namely competitors - the pedal and cleat system must allow efficient power transmission with a large and rigid contact surface.
The contact surface of the BLADE CARBON CERAMIC is provided with a 67 mm wide mounted and molded plate in stainless steel. It optimizes the contact areas pedal plate / pedal for each pedal angle.
With a contact area of 700 mm², the BLADE CARBON CERAMIC offers an optimized contact area for efficient power transmission that is unparalleled on the market.
Its weight/performance ratio performs significantly better than the competition.
CARBON TECHNOLOGY IN PEDAL BODY AND SPRING BLADE
The use of carbon in the pedal body and spring blade allows a lower pedal weight while increasing stiffness for better power transmission.
BLADE technology is a significant technological innovation in the history of clipless pedals, as it confers numerous advantages:
LIGHT WEIGHT
AERODYNAMICS
VERY SAFE ENTRY / EXIT.
