Road Cycling Shoe and cleats....

[Moe]

Hi! I am wanting to buy some road cycling shoes but I'm not sure what I need to go with them. When I buy the pedals do the pedals come with the cleats and will they fit the shoes I have chosen? AND.... Will the pedals fit the bike I want them to go on to? It's all very confusing! :/
These are the shoes I am looking at....

Your shoes need a 3 bolt cleat like SPD-SL or Look Keo.

these pedals come with cleats

You don't get cleats with shoes, they come with your choice of pedals, (FYI - some cheap pedals on ebay might not have cleats so check), but if buying from an LBS or somehwere like Wiggle or CRC then you will get the cleats with the pedals.

Pedals are standard so whichever you choose will fit your bike.

The shoes you've linked to are road specific and most suited to a 3 bolt cleat like Shimano's SPD-SL for use with pedals like THESE, (I use these BTW), but they will also accept 2 bolt SPD cleats if you decided to go for pedals like THESE.

Hope that helps

Thank you all!
I have had another look and changed my mind on shoes, (they were male specific) and I have also chosen pedals that can be used with or without cleats and they were suggested by wiggle themselves to go with the shoes!

The link says the basket is empty so I can't see your pedal choice, but dhb road shoes are generally well regarded

Yes they are both compatible.
You will get the cleats with the pedals so all you will have to do once you have received them is attach them to the shoes.
