cleats for quill pedals
 

I want to set up a pair of cycling shoes for use with quill pedals. Does anybody know where I can get a traditional style cleat that will mount on a shoe drilled for 3 hole look style cleats?

I can't answer your question, but if your Look-compatible shoes have velcro closures they won't go in and out of toeclips very well.

Hadn't thought of that, but fortunately, it's an old pair of diadoras that lace up and the a flap goes over the laces so I think it will be ok.

I have Duegi shoes with velcro closures and have never noticed the slightest problem.

Don't the velcro closures get caught on the strap? I've always had trouble with toeclips with any kind of shoes that have something that can catch on the strap. Perhaps it just that I have wide feet with a high arch so I need a pretty big openning to slide into.

No. I believe the reason is that they're at the side.

Try Yellow Jersey.

Adidas made them until recently, they still might. The Adidas cleats mount to the bottom two holes on the shoe.

Most Shimano road shoes also come with cleats suitable for toe clips and straps which use the Look drillings. I wouldn't be surprised if your regular bike shop gives you a pair if you ask for them.

Cheers

from what I've heard (in Australia at least) shoes (road 3-bolt type and SPD 2-bolt type) come into the country with those type of cleats on them so that they are classified as cycling equipment and not clothing - this makes the import fees a lot cheaper! I'm going to get a couple of pairs out of the "cleat box" on monday. I imagine that if every pair of shoes comes with some, there must be tens of thousands of the unwanted things in shops all over the country...
