Pedal Free Spin?

Equipment

I’m evaluating a new pedal (HT T2)…looks cool and it’s a little smaller and little lighter

My old pedal (Shimano xtr) spins much easier when I’m off the bike.

How important is this? I don’t really feel it on the bike…but am I wasting a small amount of energy to spin the pedal?

Not important. Under load the friction is a trivial concern. It’s like all the ceramic bearing hubbub which also isn’t a game changer.

There is probably more grease in the new pedal.
