Need Cleats 4 Older 105 Triangular Shaped Pedals

Hi there.

I need a pair of cleats that will fit the older Shimano 105, N-600 and
or Dura Ace triangular shaped pedals, Does any one know where I can
get these? They look very similar to the original Look clipless
pedals.

I do not want to go the Ebay route.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers from Peter

Maybe I am missing something, but I thought the "Made in France" Shimano
pedals used actual Look (Arc) cleats?

The cleats from both my older Look and newer Wellgo pedals do not have
the slot in the rear of the cleat that engages the pedal cage.

I stock the Shimano PD-64 cleats to which I believe you're referring.

Does your pedal body say "Made in France by Look"? (Shimano, Mavic and
Campagnolo sold rebadged Looks for years)

Classic Look Delta cleat hasn't changed since 1984 or so. - any
competent LBS will have both regular and 'arc' floating cleat sets.

Are you talking about a clipless pedal (i.e. a rebadged Look) or the
platform pedal with clips and straps? If the latter, ordinary Sidi
nylon slotted cleats (and doubtless any traditional cleat from other
manufacturers) work just fine, although the obviously don't engage at
the front the way the Shimano originals do.

Thank you.

Wow! $49.95 US per pair of cleats. I did not realize the cleats would
be twice the price of the Look clipless cleats.

Maybe I will just go back to using quill style pedals.

Hi Andrew.

They are not clipless pedals. They are identical to these ones sold at
Business Cycles. http://www.flickr.com/photos/73832500@N00/1062262081/

I would like to find less expensive cleats. For the price of those
cleats I could buy a pair of decent Wellgo Clipless Pedals incliding
the cleats at the local bicycle shop.

After a couple of years and a number of falls because I could not
unclip in time because the leg was not in a proper position (ie: too
high = at the top of the pedal stroke) I decided to re-attach my
pedals that have toe clips and toe straps.

Cheers from Peter

Hi there.

No I am not talking about clipless pedals.

Where can I get traditional cleats for a pair of old Adidas Eddy
Merckx cycling shoes circa 1984? All the shops near me say such cleats
are not available any more.

If I can get those cleats I'd revert to quill pedals, toeclips and
toestraps.

Thanks from Peter

I believe John Dacey has the original 1984 Shimano slotted style cleats
at around $50. We have copies at $29.95.
