Look Keo Spacer for Blade 2's - where to buy?
Quote | Reply
So Look released their new Keo Blade pedals this year (https://www.lookcycle.com/...le/keo-blade-carbon/). I snagged a pair, but now realize I need the spacer for my shoes (https://www.youtube.com/...F5c8_Pqb81U&t=2s / see pic below). Where on earth do you purchase these? Google has yielded 0 results for me.

Thanks

I didn't know Look made actual spacers. but I have always has success with these cleat wedges.

Look has very little info on this new setup. It appears they are recommending a spacer based on shoe sole curvature similar to Speedplays cleat mount curve adapters, but their Keo spacer illustration in the mounting instructions seem to show a constant thickness shim?!?

sometimes the 3mm LLD shims are too stiff to correctly 'bend' to the curvature of the shoe;the Keo cleat has a curvature and they sit funny on those plastic plates. When BikeFit came out with the shims it was for the Delta cleat, but with Keo design there was some kerfuffle about patents so he couldn't exactly match the dimension of the cleat.

I tend to use the already-curvy Shimano cleat spacer kit instead.

There have been some odd occasions of Keo cleats snapping in half, as the cleat does have some curve...and the shoe doesn't...wonder if this is to address that.
