OK, as we all know, old cycling shoes cost an arm and a leg. Also, finding some in the correct size that will fit is difficult enough with new shoes, let alone some that are 20 to 30 years old.
So, I have some NOS AXO shoes from the 80's that are a great fit and will do the job perfectly, even if they don't quite have the right look.
But, the slots in the cleats are presently too narrow for my alloy framed pedals, and looking at lots of shoes on the bay this seems to be the way the cleats were made in order to allow the user to file them to fit.
So, before I take a file to my irreplaceable plastic cleats, have I got that right? Or am I just about to make a complete mess of everything?
