Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

I created a thread in the Clydesdale/Athena section on pedals, please take a read and see if you can offer some advice. Thanks!

That is alot of weight, but for the Look Keo, keep in mind the Sprint has two bearings, the Keo Carbon has three. If you liked the Keo's, that might make the difference. The Keo Carbon Cro-mo is $110 at Probikekit.com, the gold standard of where to buy Keo pedals. Just in case you never heard of them, yes they are in Britain, and they have an great reputation.

Anything with a steel or stainless steel axle. I've been up around 205 before and I was/am using Look pedals (the ARC cleat, before the Keos came out) and the stainless steel Eggbeaters.

Just avoid Ti and you'll be fine. Make sure your pedals are screwed in nice and tight too.
