  1. Recently, while placing an order from Supergo, I inquired if it was
    possible to obtain replacement locking tabs for Look CX-7 pedals.
    Since spending a fortune on them several years ago, I have broken or
    lost the tabs on both axles. The most informed gentleman taking my
    order (Park PRS-20) mentioned that he had seen it discussed on
    RBTech. If so, perhaps someone could give me the source. Without the
    tabs, the pedals float to the right, leaving the left one with minimal
    Q and the right one with max. If I can't find suitable replacements,
    I'll just safety wire them in position. Had I known that the fragile
    tabs were so prone to breakage, I'm not sure that I would have spent
    the money. I do however like the ability of changing the platform
    angle. I unexpectedly found that positive 1.5 (meaning that the
    outside of the foot is higher than the inside) feels more stable than
    zero (0) or flat footed and have been riding at that angle since
    initial experimentation some years ago. As a frequent reader in the
    background, I'd also like to pass along my thanks form maintaining a
    very informative board at the same time keeping a modicum of civility.

    Say "hello" when you pass me by.

  2. Hey, awhile back I posted seeking information on replacement parts for
    CX7s and that could be what someone saw. Unfortunately, I didn't get
    any repsonses. I think I even tried to reach Look. I never could find
    them, though, and I too have given up on the CX7s and will move onto
    the new Time pedals next. If you do find somewhere to get the tabs,
    please post.

    PS You can replicate the cant you get from the CX7 +1.5 by using Le
    Wedge, made by Lemond, between your cleat and shoe.

    Thanks, I was afraid of that. I'm kinda handy with safety wire so
    think that I'll hardwire them to the appropriate Q. Sad that there is
    so little support the Taj Mahal of Look Pedals. Thanks again for your
    input.
