Cleat Engagement and Release

The Keo 2 Max Vision pedals use a clipless system. Ensure your cleats are properly installed on your cycling shoes.

• Engagement: Position the front of your cleat over the front of the pedal mechanism, then push down firmly with your heel until you hear a click.
• Release: To disengage, twist your heel outwards away from the bicycle.

Adjustable Tension

The cleat retention tension can be adjusted to suit your preference and riding style.

• Locate the tension adjustment screw on the rear of the pedal body.
• Use an Allen key to turn the screw: turn clockwise to increase tension (harder release) or counter-clockwise to decrease tension (easier release).
• The tension range is between 8 and 12. Adjust both pedals equally.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your pedals.

• Cleaning: Regularly clean your pedals with a damp cloth to remove dirt and road grime. Avoid using harsh chemicals.
• Lubrication: Periodically apply a small amount of bicycle-specific grease to the pedal axles and cleat retention mechanism to ensure smooth operation and prevent corrosion.
• Inspection: Routinely check the pedals for any signs of wear, damage, or loose components. Pay attention to the spindle, pedal body, and light modules.
• Cleat Condition: Inspect your cleats regularly for wear. Worn cleats can affect engagement and release, and should be replaced.

Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your pedals.

• Lights Not Working: Ensure the light modules are fully charged. Check that they are securely installed in the pedal body. If issues persist, contact customer support.
• Difficulty Engaging/Releasing: Check your cleat tension settings. If tension is too high, decrease it. Ensure cleats are clean and not excessively worn. Lubricate the pedal mechanism if necessary.
• Unusual Noises: Inspect pedals for loose parts. Ensure pedals are securely tightened to the crank arms. Clean and lubricate moving parts.
