Can you tell us about your Crankbrothers "quattro pro" pedals?
FR: "I went to work with Crankbrothers because I was having trouble with an injury. Last year my agent hooked me up with them. At the time they did not even have a road pedal, just the Egg-beaters. I was riding Moser, and Moser was using Look. Then my knee problems started coming up again. I went home after the Spring classics and switched back to my Egg-Beaters. I said, OK, I will give these pedals 2 weeks, and they worked.
Basically, The Crankbrothers technology is similar to a Speedplay with a lot of float. Then I started to help them develop their road pedals, and basically that's how the whole relationship started. It's a good pedal. Cutting-edge technology. There's a really unique way of clipping in. They are really really reactive on feed-back, it is just getting better and better.
The question I have is, does FR still run Quattros on his Ridley bikes? I know Davitmon-Lotto used them for a while but suspect the relationship has finished. Anyone knows anything more as to the current situation?
