I've got a question for the bike setup guys out there. I just switched pedals from Look to Speedplay Zeros. The question I have deals with the amount I need to lower my saddle to account for the smaller distance between the pedal spindle and the shoe sole. I simply measured the distances on both setups and subtracted:
Look/Shimano Carbon shoe d = 7/8"
Zero/Shimano Carbon Shoe d = 7/16", therefore
I need to lower my saddle: 14/16"-7/16" = 7/16"
Does this seem consistent with what other people have seen? Also, any other helpful hints on the switch. I've ridden Look for the last 14 yrs, since I started riding in my early teens, and I've never ridden anything else. Thanks...
