    Been done to death i imagine but as I'm having issues with Look keo easy plus pedals, clicking when standing on climbs (defo pedals).

    These are new and have replaced ones i assumed were faulty. Is this normal???

    Right now I'm about to just switch to Shimano Ultegra 6800 ones, they seem to be a bettet quality.

    A clicking noise? If its definitely the pedals, it definitely because the pedals are not tight enough or because there's no grease on the treads.

    I have Look pedals fitted on 2 of the bikes and have never experienced any clicking noise. A couple have snapped off over the years but otherwise they haven't given any trouble.

    I get ya! Tighten your pedals..a drop of grease on your cleats will help too.

    Seems like the axle has play in it, will do as suggested n go from there.
