  This review is based on two visits. Visit #1 I went in looking for a set of speedplay road pedals and the gentleman who helped me out was excellent. After a discussion about the reason for my intended purchase he gave me some tips that would possibly alleviate the issue I was experiencing without having to spend money on new pedals, so I left to give it a shot. Unfortunately those tips didn't work for me so I went back a few days later to purchase the pedals. Visit #2 was ultimately a waste of time and, unfortunately, the gentleman who helped me the first time was not there. They had one set left and it was clear that one pedal did not rotate as smooth (rough, dragging feeling on the bearing as compared to several other speedplay pedals there) as the other, but it was also clear that the attending employee didn't believe it. He offered to grease the pedal up to see if that alleviated the issue, but ultimately it didn't. I said I wasn't comfortable purchasing that specific set and the response was "if you have trepidations about buying it then I would say don't buy it." So I took his advice and didn't spend my money there. It would've been too easy to offer to order a set, but he didn't seem interested. I promptly went to another speedplay dealer here in town and purchased two sets. Mixed bag of employees here it seems, but based on that last experience I won't be returning. FoCo has too many other excellent shops to waste your time and money at peloton.
