there you go....you can even get the highly rated Keo design from $90 all the way up to $399, depending on what you want....no orange Looks though, from the look of it (

after reading the topic again, i realised you wanted them ranked. well i don't ride Look pedals, i ride speedplays and love them, but i've heard very good things about the Look Keo range, and like i said above, you can get Keo design pedals
starting at $90 for the 280g Keo Classic:
$140 for the 260g Keo Sprint:
$219.99 for the 230g Keo Carbon Cro-moly:
$279 for the 230g Keo Carbon HM Ironman
and finally $399.99 for the 190g Keo Carbon Titanium:
**** i should sell these things
just kidding

Does the new Keo line of pedals continue the trend of the cheapest pedal having the lowest maximum cleat release force? Because other than that I don't really see a difference from the +$300 price difference doesn't really warrant taking 90g off a pedal.

yeah, the Classic does have the lowest cleat release, and i think you have a really good point, but for some people that 90g seems to be a lot(these are also probably the people who have the new ultra-lightweight Litespeed frame already on order). Though everybody knows that the Speedplay Zero Ti pedals are lighter, at 164g

KeO, cromolys are best bang for your buck in my opinion, and yes the speedplays are lighter, but the cleats weigh a hell of alot more than the keo cleats do.
