    I've a pair of Look pedal and cleats, I noticed today I've lost a screw outa them today.

    Would the local bike shop have that kind of thing usually or would I have to go online to order one?
    Can't go to the shop till tmro anyway, but I kinda figure a single spare screw is not something they'd carry.

    It'll probably come down to luck, to be honest. I lost a cleat bolt from my SPD-SLs last week, and the workshop in Wheelworx were able to sort me out with a spare. As you say, it's not exactly something that's carried as an individual item, but they happened to have some lying around that they were able to sort me out with. Couldn't hurt to ring your local shop(s) and ask anyway. Otherwise you may be looking at a new set of cleats, and hoping that when the current ones wear out, you can reuse at least one bolt fitting them!

    I've a few spare if you're stuck and FSL can find any.
    If you don't get sorted pm me and I'll put them in the post.

    Rather than opening a new thread, just wondering I bought a new set of look cleats for a new pair of shoes - my last set had anti slip pads these ones didnt come with them. Im keen to get them as they stop the cleat being warn down.

    Does anyone know where they can be got? Did a quick search but got nothing.

    Chain Reaction stock them and I'm fairly sure the Cycle Superstore do too but you have to buy the complete cleat, not just the pads!
