2. Persediaan dan Pemasangan

2.1 Menyahkotak dan Komponen

Before installation, ensure all components are present. The package includes:

  • Racing Pedals (Left and Right)
  • KEO Cleats (typically included, verify package contents)
  • Mounting hardware for cleats

2.2 Pedal Installation on Crank Arms

To install the pedals:

  1. Apply a thin layer of grease to the pedal threads. This prevents seizing and facilitates future removal.
  2. Identify the left and right pedals. The right pedal (R) has standard threading (tighten clockwise). The left pedal (L) has reverse threading (tighten counter-clockwise).
  3. Carefully thread each pedal into its respective crank arm by hand to avoid cross-threading.
  4. Once hand-tight, use an appropriate pedal wrench (or Allen key if applicable) to fully tighten the pedals. Ensure they are securely fastened to prevent loosening during use, which can damage the crank arm threads.

2.3 Cleat Installation on Cycling Shoes

Install the KEO cleats onto your cycling shoes according to the cleat manufacturer's instructions. Proper cleat positioning is crucial for comfort and efficiency. Adjustments can be made for fore/aft position, lateral position, and rotation.

3. Operating the Pedals

3.1 Clipping In

To clip into the pedals, position the front of your cleat under the front hook of the pedal. Then, press down firmly with your heel until you hear a "click," indicating that the cleat is securely engaged.

3.2 Clipping Out

To unclip, twist your heel outwards, away from the bicycle frame. This action releases the cleat from the pedal mechanism. Practice clipping in and out in a safe, controlled environment before riding on public roads.

3.3 Adjustable Tension

The KEO 2 Max Carbon pedals feature adjustable tension, allowing you to customize the force required to clip in and out. This adjustment is made using an Allen key on the rear mechanism of the pedal. The tension can be set between 8 and 12 Nm.

  • Turn the screw towards the "–" symbol to decrease tension (easier to clip out).
  • Turn the screw towards the "+" symbol to increase tension (more secure hold, harder to clip out).

4. Penyelenggaraan

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your pedals.

  • Pembersihan: Periodically clean the pedals and cleats to remove dirt, mud, and debris. Use a damp kain dan sabun lembut, mengelakkan bahan kimia yang keras.
  • Pelinciran: Apply a small amount of grease to the pedal threads before installation and reapply if pedals are removed and reinstalled.
  • Cleat Wear: Inspect your cleats regularly for wear. Worn cleats can lead to difficulty clipping in/out or accidental unclipping. Replace cleats as needed.
  • Pemeriksaan Spindle: Check the pedal spindles for any signs of play or damage. If excessive play is detected, consult a professional bike mechanic.
  • Keketatan: Ensure pedals are securely tightened to the crank arms. Loose pedals can cause damage to both the pedal and crank arm.
