  • Clipless bicycle pedal
    Patent number: 5992266
    Abstract: A clipless pedal system for bicycles includes a pedal platform and two cleat retainers. The cleat retainers have hooked ends and are held against opposite sides of the pedal platform. A resilient loop encircles the pedal platform, holding the cleat retainers against the pedal platform. The ends of the cleat retainer may pivot away from the pedal platform by elastic deformation of the loop, allowing insertion of a cleat attached to a cycling shoe.
