should keo blade 2 ti feel this way?
Quote | Reply
Just got a new pair of Keo Blade 2 ti pedals, 12nm. Am on the Max Carbon now.

The Blade does not freely spin, the way the Max does. When I turn the spindle on the Blade I can feel a bit of resistance. And on one of the pedals, there is a spot that feels "gritty."

I think the Blade has a different spring than the Max, which is why it doesn't spin freely. I am wondering though if I should be feeling any resistance turning the spindle. Does this smooth out over time? Thanks

No coasting in running and no crying in baseball

yes, that is normal.

it does smooth out over time. the pedals are so light that any friction at all causes them not to hang level.

i just got a new set and it is doing that--the other sets i have now hang.

has nothing to do with the spring or axle (mine are 16nm Ti).
