What style of cleats do I need for my new clipless pedals??
I'm a bit of a newbie to road biking. I just bought a used bike with the clipless pedals shown in the attachment. All my previous bikes have had toe clip pedals so I've never bothered buying bike shoes before. I know there are different styles of cleats, but I'm not sure which ones will fit these pedals. Because I will most likely be buying online I don't want to order the wrong ones. Can anyone help? Thanks!!!

Those take Shimano or other SPD style cleats, such as these:
https://www.amazon.com/Shimano-SH51-S...shimano+cleats
There are a few different styles available offering different amounts of "float"or foot rotation on top of the pedal. That is a subjectve decision.

Unfortunately, not all SPD cleats are the same. If you knew who the manufacturer was, it would help.

For best results post photo of logo, or take pedals to a shop where they might be able to figure out what it is and order exactly the right cleat.
