Hi everyone,

I recently bought a second hand bike equiped with 199(4-5) campagnolo
group. Since this are my first clipless pedals and there seems to be a
lot of different types available I am a bit lost about the type of
these pedals. What shoes do I need for them? Photos are here:

(http://len.is-a-geek.org/photo/new_bici/slides/dscf0045.html). Can I
hope to find new shoes of this type? Or my only hope is to find
second-hand ones?

Looks like any "road" shoe that fits a Look-type cleat will work!

Without a doubt the most common clipless road pedal system
ever - standard Look. Cleats are available in normal
non-rotating or an optional rotational model at every road
shop. The Look cleats fit nearly every road shoe as many
other makers have adopted the Look 3-bolt format.

I wonder if more road cyclists use Look cleats or SPuD M/S "mountain"
cleats?

I like ducks, but I prefer not to walk like one.

I've used Looks since they first appeared. But I've been fooling with SPDs in my
recent CX obsession and am liking them. Easier to clip in and a generally more
robust and rugged feel to them without really weighing much more.

Looks like Look pedals with a Campagnolo logo on them to me. Have you
tried your shoes on standard Look pedals? I suspect there is no
problems there where you see one.

I say0-around here, altho many use MTB shoes for their road bike, most use road
pedals and shoes. Most common is Look, then SP, then Time.
