Cleats

No call for them

Isn't it funny how the phrase "No call for them" only ever comes out
when someone is calling for them.

I suspect that all retailers have to undergo a logic bypass before
starting their business.

There's LOADS of call for those.

Did you ask them how many they had sold recently? It might have helped
to illustrate the point.

As a follow-up to the Aldi pedals and shoes purchase, whereby my new Aldi
cleats don't fit my old Welgo pedals, but my old Welgo cleats do fit my new
Aldi pedals, I thought I'd get some new cleats (as advised on this
newsgroup), so that new shoes can work both bikes.
I went to my LBS.
No cleats.

So buy 'em by mail order - Wiggle sell Wellgo cleats, though (oddly
enough) not Aldi ones.

If your LBS doesn't sell shoes, you wouldn't expect it to sell cleats.
Even if it does sell shoes, I don't know how common some of these cleat
systems are compared to Shimano clones.

AIUI, tiny performing-monkey bikes are a fashion accessory and are
ridden (if at all) with flat pedals and trainers whose laces are left
undone.
I'd pay to see the tandem in action!

Especially with laces undone - all that flappy shoe lace near all those
chewy teeth.
