After inventing the clipless pedal in 1983 and following a decade of innovation, LOOK launched the unprecedented KEO line in 2004. Leading design and rigorous testing have enabled us to consistently exceed the most stringent industry performance standards—and push pedal technology to new heights. In fact, our reputation for excellence has made KEO the #1 selling pedal on the road.The recalled pedals comply with CPSC and European safety standards, but your satisfaction and safety come first at LOOK, which is why we will replace your first-generation KEO chromoly axles with a newer, improved design at no cost to you.
We apologize for any inconvenience, and assure you that with the KEO axle upgrade you will still be riding the world’s best pedals.
IDENTIFYING YOUR KEO PEDALS
Most KEO pedal undersides are stamped with a month/year manufacture date code. See Fig. 1 and Fig. 2. Sample date shown is “11-05” or November 2005.

IDENTIFYING YOUR KEO HM PEDALS
KEO HM pedals feature an alphanumeric date code on pedal undersides, with letters A through L corresponding to production month and numbers designating production year. See Fig. 3. Sample date shown is “L-5” or December 2005.

WHAT TO DO
Identify your KEO pedal production date. If your pedals were manufactured between January 2004 and December 2005, stop using them immediately. Bring them to your nearest Authorized Keo Axle Replacement Dealer, where the axles will be upgraded free of charge.
