I have an old pair of Time Criterium pedals in good condition, that I might like to start using. They are designed for two sets of cleats, front and rear with 2 bolts each. They are similar to the old Time Equipe Pro pedals.
I have neither cleats nor shoes that will fit these. My question is where can I get cleats to fit them, and what kind of shoes would work? Also, is it even worth fooling with these old pedals?

I have the cleats..you need either a set of Time or Carnac shoes, older ones, that accept these 4 bolt cleats or a conversion plate that bolts to a 3 bolt, LOOK style shoe, with the 4 bolt setup. Talk to a Time/Carnac shoe dealer. Thinking about it, I think a Speedplay shim, one that comes with all pedals, will work also. 3 bolt to attach to any road shoe, then attach the Time cleats...since Speedplay were always able to connect to Time shoes w/o an adaprter. If you have the shoes, I'll send ya some SP plates, we have a drawer of them.

Sidi sells Time adapters for thier road shoes. The front "cleat" piece is a positioner; while the rear cleat is where the action takes place. Serious road shops like Peter's carry choices you need. I still favor the old Time pedals for road riding. However, you will want to take them off as soon as you complete your ride. I wish I could find some walkable cleat covers that stay of and provide the protection like the Look covers I see around.

I still use them on one of my bikes, and they work very well. Sidi shoes in the Genius II era had an adaptor plate for them, and Time shoes had the bolt holes already there (as you'd expect). There are also some Look-to-Time adaptors kicking around; I sold a pair on *bay last year.
