Keo Blade Carbon

LOOK is a French company from Nevers that effectively invented the modern clipless road pedal: in 1984 it adapted its ski-binding know-how into the PP65, and Bernard Hinault won the 1985 Tour de France on LOOK clipless pedals — a moment that changed road cycling forever. The Keo family arrived in 2004 as a lighter, narrower evolution of the original three-hole system. In 2011 LOOK introduced the Keo Blade, whose defining idea was to throw out the traditional steel retention spring entirely and replace it with a pre-tensioned carbon leaf spring — the 'blade'. This let LOOK cut weight, enlarge the platform, and offer swappable blades for different release tensions. The Keo Blade Carbon and its lighter Carbon/Ti and Ceramic Ti siblings have been ridden in the professional peloton by riders such as Alberto Contador, Peter Sagan and Tadej Pogačar.
