 45 |  Subject: speedplay pedals questionHi, I currently have speedplay pedals on my bike and I notice that they do not spin freely. Is this normal? I have used shimano pedals and they always spin freely........ Just wondering if I'm giving up performance and or need to replace the speedplays? Any suggestions for a good pair of clipless pedals around 50-75 bucks? |

I have 2 sets of Zeros and they do rotate easily and smoothly, but they dont spin with the flick of a finger if that's what you're asking. |

Expert 727 South Windsor CT | Subject: RE: speedplay pedals question Same here, I have a pair of zero's they rotate freely but not at a flick as mentioned. You can always use the grease port, which is recommended by speedplay. GO NAVY |
