Finishing up a road build and these seem to be a decent alternative to Look Keos which I currently use on my road and TT bikes, plus they have a colour option that matches the new bike (yeah, I know). The interlocking cleat design seems interesting too.
Anybody have real-world experience with them/anything to be aware of?
Is there more than one model? I bought a flashy colored pair for my commuter and they’re heavy AF. Solid and do the job, but not for the aero weenie

I’m looking at the road carbon model - according to Competitive Cyclist they’re 267g.
The pedal looks like a VP R73 (or R73H for the carbon version), spindle a little different (shorter).

Cleat looks like a VP ARC6. Right down to the white (teflon?) insert on the back (which based on my my SPD-compatible experience won’t engage as nicely as a genuine one)
Unless you’re hung up on the colour, you can get them cheaper elsewhere.

Interesting - thanks for the info. Looks like they are indeed VP pedals:

You sir are a stable genius. That gave me a chuckle.
