Shimano vs Look pedals?

[lusosa]

Any comments about the differnece between Look and shimano. I was looking at the A5.1 vs the ultegra pedals. In terms of adjustability and ease of use?

U should use ultagra spd-sl they're fantastic

Look works for me, but I've been using them for almost 20 years. I'm relunctant to change. If I was starting out I'd probably start off with the Dura Ace "Lance" pedals, a little lighter than the Ultegra but basically the same (but more expensive).

I tried the Dura Ace SL's and they didn't float very well. Had to oil the plastic cleat. Caused pain in the Ach Tendon. Switched to Speed Plays X stainless. Worked very smoothly. Have to dry lube them, but the float is very smooth. Good Luck.

I know you didnt ask about other pedals but I had Look and switched to Speedplay and doubt I would ever try another pedal.
