Identify these pedals
 

I have no idea what type of pedals came on my bike, but they don't have toe clips. I have some normal toe clips and they don't go on here. Any insight?

Clipless road pedals. You'll need cleats and cycling shoes to use them, if you take it to a shop they'll be able to show you what kinds fit.

Hrmm pita. Are they worth anything at all? Maybe I don't know anything but I'd rather just have normal pedals and toe clips, and wear regular shoes. Is this something I could get a trade for on the board?

Hey,

It could be a clip pedal like this one,

Notice that it should not make any difference to your idea. You should change the pedal with another regular kind. That is because the clip for this particular pedal is unique to this pedal and you may not have access to it.

As for it being worth anything ... you could exchange it to some plastic pedals on a mama-chari. I ain't giving you my mikashima.

+1 on Tomo's call. Shimano used to make them too. 105 and 600 models I've seen. The toeclips were proprietary, probably difficult to find.
Did you shoot that pic with your spycam under cover of night?

Yeah those are the pedals that came on my kilo. The only clips I could find for them were plastic and they always felt like they were going to snap because they bent so much. I swapped them out with some MKS Sylvans with metal clips like two weeks in, the difference is incredible

are there three holes at the front for screws?

nope.
see the ridge at the back? the lack of a retaining system?
not clipless.
probably made to interface with a cleat, but it's definitely a clip style pedal, one that can probably be used without a cleat. not shimano (that i've seen), but it seems like a very similar design.

They are LOOK pedals. Might be Keo's. If you want to sell them you might be able to get 70 or 80 bucks for them if they are in real good shape. They are fantastic clipless pedals though if you want to use them with cleats.

hahaha

Funky left-hand drive, too! :)

Whoa i did not notice the left hand drive thing. How did he do that with the camera?

yeah they are some type of clip pedal (designed for use with toe clips and straps, which are missing). they are not the triangular shimano pedals, nor are they campy. if we had a better shot of the pedal we could be more help, also try the classic & vintage forum!

Ha sorry about the pic. I don't have a camera so I used my macbook webcam... its either that or a camera phone. I don't think they are the looks, and there is no name or anything on the pedals. The Shimano style toe clips look like they would work. Regardless a buddy of mine just told me he has a set of mks knockoffs that he'd sell me with the toe clips and straps for $10. I'm just gonna grab them for a deal.

Those are NOT clipless pedals you tools. Those are old platform pedals with the toe clips missing.

Christ, the image is just flipped, look at the downtube of the bike.

ok. so they're not old, they're not clipless, and they're definitely not looks (lol, that was kinda funny).
i noticed a set of these on my friend's bike (he works at a shop and brought something home to sell to a friend for cheap).

they're junk. brand? doesn't matter. in a hundred miles they'll be wasted anyway. they take the same clips as the older shimano pedals (pics in my previous post), but i really wouldn't invest any time in them. spend a few bucks on gr9's or better.

right? i swear this forum is a big stupid people prank. i keep waiting for the punchline, but it just gets worse and worse every day...

actually, see that little cylinder with what looks like a quick release lever attached to the inboard side of it? i wonder if those are pre-clipless pedals that had a hand-operated binding to a cleat.

it's hard to tell because the photo sucks. but they are definitely not LOOK pedals. they might be those awkward old pedals with the three-bolt flat toe clip interface.

That was Shimano's contribution to toe clip incompatibility.
