Just ordered.....
I just ordered the LOOK KEO Carbon Pedals, the Sidi T-1 HT Carbon Lorica Tri shoes and Fortezza Tricomp tires. I'm stoked to put them on my bike. Once I get them, i'll post pictures. Has anyone ever ridden any of these items? I tried the shoes on at a LBS, but everything else was just purchased by reading, etc. Let me know how you like them. Take care!

I am considering Carbon KEO's for my new bike as well. Where did you get them, and at what price? A lot are offered on E-bay as "Buy it Now" for around 130-140.
But, a lot of them are listed as coming with red (9 degree float) kleats, which I think is too much. Would prefer Black (zero) or Gray (5 degree)

it is rotational freedom for your foot. Therefore, your foot can rotate or pivot a little without kicking out of the pedal. I personally think 9 degrees is too much. WOuld like to try the gray. I have always used the Black on my old look pedals, with zero.

Price...
I actually work at a store that I get employee purchase discounts so I ordered through that program and got insane deals (otherwise i could never afford this stuff). I don't know where would be the cheapest place to go though, but good luck to you. I will let you guys know how this stuff works out when I get it (which should be tonight). Take care!

KMK, glad you enjoyed them, mine should be here soon.
I bought my first bike back in 1989, and road it a month with the old cage style toe clip pedals. When I finally bought LOOKs, I wanted to ride all the time! They were so awesome.
(By the way, that original pair of LOOKs is on my Madone right now, waiting for the Keos!)
