I wanted to love the carbon blades, alas mine squeaked incessantly. I persevered for a while but could not get rid of the noise, i dont think thats terribly unusual judging by how many forums it appears on, which seems pretty poor. Life is too short for £80 squeaky pedals. They also have a sharp outside edge and it sliced me open a few times when unclipping. But that might just be me.
Needless to say, i was not impressed and returned them for a refund after a couple hundred miles. You may have read my scathing review on wiggle haha.
I now have 105 and am very pleased with them.
Snap? I've never heard that. Perhaps if your pedal hits something hard as carbon doesn't handle impact well. DA PD-9000 and Keo 2 Max carbon pedals are both great pedals. The DA"s have an extra axle bearing, 3 year vs 2 year warranty, adjustable entry tension, and can be ordered with a 4mm longer axle.
I hear that the spring blades snap? Would I be better of with the dura ace
These are excellent pedals; lightweight, low profile, aero, adjustable Q Fatcor and wide platform. You need to know what your spring tension is as the rentention blades only come in three tensions - 12, 16, and 20, the latter designed for sprinters and track. And, no, you don;t get all three tension blades as they are normally sold with a 16. Also, special tools are required to remove/install the spring tension blade. These are purchased separately from the replacement blade kit.
