<p>The clipless pedal system for mountain bikes or other bicycles comprises a generally circular pedal body, at least one side of which has a mushroom or T-shaped extension which is created by extending tabs over a small diameter neck. The cleat consists of a mounting plate which can be attached to the sole of mountain biking shoe, and has a generally open interior of sufficient dimensions to permit insertion of the head therein. Engaging means extend inwardly at a spacing corresponding to the head of the extension. The engaging means can be inserted into the neck of the extension to catch just below the head of the extension. An eccentric stop prevents forward motion of the cleat relative to the pedal beyond a predetermined point. A spring tab is used to releasably lock the cleat and pedal extension together once the head is in position with respect to the engaging means and in contact with the eccentric stop.</p> |
