I'm not using Look pedals(use Campy) but have had MANY knee problems since college. At any rate, I like many. tend to do out of the saddle work, and have been since the 80's. I truly think that the solution is to stretch the ITB, as it is a common problem for cyclists and triathletes. I'm also from the old school, where I think we all need to have a solid foundation of riding BEFORE we start to put huge amounts of effort on the bike, whether outside or on the trainer.

I'm not sure whether this helps you or not, but I think I'd concentrate on stretching before changing pedals. If there's an issue already, I'm not convinced that a new pedal will alleviate the problem.

If you're unable to find some stretches, please let me know and I'll email some to you.( as best as I can via the internet) Good luck and definitely keep us informed.
