Ttocs Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 In the 1980s Look introduced a clipless pedal for cycling based on equipment for ski bindings. A spring-loaded latch on the top of the pedal held a cleat that was bolted to the sole of a shoe, a twist of the foot releasing the hold. They are called pédales automatiques (automatic pedals) in French.

Ttocs Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 When you die, your mates will happily offer your wife what you told her you paid for your bike, even though its 2 years old.
Allrounder Posted March 15, 2018 Posted March 15, 2018 Kia made bicycles in the 70's, went bankrupt and then Hyundai (if I remember correctly the CEOs was brothers) bought the brand over and started to use it on cars.
