All Look includes Delta, and all of the 3 bolt mount cleats. This includes SPDL
This is the only way to go, use road race pedals! BUt for using 2 bolt cleats? Not good for road shoes, so maybe you want walkable gravel or MTB shoes if you must?

Hi Tom — I’m new to cycling and saw your great review on the Pearl Izumi Tour Road shoes. Would the 3-bolt set up on these shoes work with Look Delta cleats for indoor cycling? Thanks. Jai

In reply to Roman.

Hi Roman,

I found the shoes pretty true to size as far as cycling shoes go. Sidi’s tend to run small, so that is probably why you needed to size up.

For me, I didn’t feel I needed to size up with them, but everyone is different as to fit and comfort level.

Hi Guys, many thanks for the nice review – I will go for these shoes!
Is there a “special” sizing, or is the size like normal shoes (e.g. usually I have 42, also with Specialized Bike Shoes, but Sidi 43).
Do you think 42 is the right size?
Thanks in advance!
Best, Roman

In reply to Anne. Hi Anne, Only in my room that has carpet. I think using 2-bolt SPD cleats with these outdoors wouldn't be a good option.

Have you tried walking in these with 2-bolt SPD cleats?

In reply to Anne. Hi Anne, Agreed. It would be very cool to see a mountain bike version of the shoe.

Would LOVE to see PI bring out a mtb version of this shoe for improved off the bike walking. Tempted by this version but the cleat on ground is what has had me migrate to all mtb spd shoes. LOVE the fit of PI shoes.
