Afternoon, I have a set of look keo blades ti axle, and have managed to semi snap one of the blades on the non drive side pedal. Not through crashing, I believe I had a slip on the pedal as I tried to clip in causing it to snap partially.
The blades are £40 but struggling to find someone to repair as it can only be done by a dealer. So possibly looking into selling if I can get a good price.
So any ideas?
Which one broke out of interest?
I have a pair of non blade Carbon Ti Keos, and snapped the body on one on Wednesday, may be able to bodge a working pair... 😕
Lhs.
Me too, dammit!
Can you not buy the tool to replace the blade?
How old?
Send back to fishers for warranty. they are pretty good. if not they can fix. but should be able sort for free.
Semi-hijack: How did you find them (before they broke)? I've just got some today, and not managed to get out on them, as its been lashing down all day.
The tool is 117 £ so not worth it. Personally I find them a little stiff to clip into. However it is a real positive engagement and you feel fully locked in. Great pedals just pissed I broke one.
HOW MUCH!!!! I paid less than £100 for my pedals!
Running the 12N on my 'summer' bike and I find them a lot better than the Keo Classic, in terms of engagement and also support/ pressure etc.
You paid less than 100 for kep blades bloody hell
eriously. 2 year warranty. get down you lbs. fishers will sort it.
What if they're over 2 years old?! They've been doing Blades a while now!
I'd have a go at doing it myself,the blade looks like a friction fit into two cutouts either end of the pedal.
Judging from pictures as I don't own a pair, it appears you would need to bend/flex the blade to allow it fit intothe cutouts .
This is guess work but remove the old blade which should give some idea of how it fits together, warm the new blade with a hairdryer/hot air gun this should make it less brittle and slightly more pliable.
Locate one end of the new blade into the cutout,then using a suitable sized wooden dowel placed between thebody of the pedal and the underside of the blade you should hopefully be able to bend the blade and locate the other end into the pedal body and then slide out the wooden dowel to remove the flex and let it sit in place properly.
This is a educated guess of how it fits together looking at pics on Google images,I could be totally wrong but as it stands it could be a cheaper way to fix it.
