Description of 🚲 KOOTU Universal Road Bike Pedals: Platform & Clipless Pedals for Road, Spin, MTB & Indoor Bikes (9/16")

Sclipless pedal ​use a three-bolt cleat. The supplied yellow cleats offer 6 degrees of lateral float: 3 degrees in each direction, which makes lining up the cleats on the shoes easy,so are ideal for a range of cyclists from beginners to more experienced riders. Adjustable Tension:Using a small Allen key, the release tension can be easily adjusted within a wide range from very loose to incredibly tight, depending on your experience level and requirements – The large plastic cleat easily locates into the front of the pedal body and the engagement tension provides a very positive and audible click. With an extra-large target area to make clipping in easy, the 9/16" clipless road bike pedals feature a lightweight composite body and durable stainless-steel plating. Together, these deliver a very secure and solid base for pedalling and excellent power transfer. KOOTU SPD-SL road pedals for high performance road racing uses a low profile design to increases road clearance, thereby increasing confidence when cutting into corners. Easy Installation:The road pedals are left and right. Turn the left pedal counterclockwise, turn the right pedal clockwise to install. First try to screw directly by hand, then tighten with a tool until maximum torque is reached.

Solid price, good product. Use instead of Look KEO for DIY Peloton

I run Look KEO pedals on my road bike and wanted to use the same shoes/cleats for my budget DIY Peloton setup. At $65 KEO plus another $20 for spikes, paying less than $40 for both with this order was a win in my book. Tension was relaxed a little when shipped, but the Allen key adjuster made adjustment easier. The lube makes them a bit stiff, they don't sag like my KEOs when opened. I wouldn't put them on my road bike without removing a few, but there's no need for a covered bike. 15-20 rides…

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Be sure to buy! High quality and save $40! Works with my Cannondale and Peloton!

I was nervous at first as the combined price for pedals and cleats is usually over $80, but I was very impressed when they arrived. Pedals of high quality and are equipped with new spikes! Now I have a pair for when the road inevitably eats away at my current kit. I tested the LOOK KEO Cleat pedals and they work right out of the box (didn't need to adjust the pedal tension at all). I shared this product with a few friends. You just can't beat the prices. I really hope KOOTU stays true to its…

75 miles and stock still too tight

I have no problem with the weight of these pedals (135g each) or the cleat mechanism (stiff but not intrusive). However, I'm disappointed that they don't spin freely. The bearings have no noticeable play (which is good) but they are too tight. As a result, the pedals stay virtually where they were when you released them, rather than gravity returning them to the front-of-the-pedal-up position. Since I don't know which direction the pedal is pointing, I often have to look down when engaging the…

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Good but not great
