Look vs SPD vs Speedplay pedals
I'm sure this has been rehashed many times already but heregoes. I'm in
the market for new pedals. Anything compatible with Carnac Quartz road shoes. Currently on the original Ultegra SPD and I'm tired of the small platform. I avoided Speedplay because of the high cleats but they've improved that alot so they're a possibility. Are they all fairly equal in terms of platform size, entry/exit ease so it comes down to style? I may go back to Looks otherwise. |

So you're saying that although you know it's been talked about already, you want people to spoonfeed you info? In a group for which this topic is not appropriate? How thoughtful. Check an archive like at groups.google.com or the appropriate group like rec.bicycles.tech. JT |

I should've saved this internet tree for something equally unrelated like the "what's the best chain degreaser" thread or "wanted mapei 97 bibs". Thanks for the help anyway. |

Or bushings like the X3? I always heard such bad things about the X3s... Glad to see they are coming out with something a little less expensive. |
