Roadraven. We must do things a bit different over here in the UK. The SPDs and cleats came in the same box. They weren't sold separately or as part of a deal, they just came together. Strange how the same company uses different sales techniques in different countries.

My mtb pedals (shimano) came with cleats; same with my road pedals (also shimano). I live in the U.S. What kind of pedals do you have, Rachel?

At my local shop, when you buy a bike that comes with clipless pedals, the cleats should come with the bike. Lots of times the shops keep them if you don't ask, but they *are* included.

Agree. When I got my bike with pedals, I got cleats. When I got new pedals, I got cleats.

My pedals came with the cleats, too. I would have to request a 2nd set of cleats specifically if I wanted the cleats only. I have Speedplays. Do the different brands do things differently?

Edit: oh, wait, I see. Different countries, different sales patterns. (sorry, guess I skimmed over that!)
