Hi I am new to road bikes and am confused about the clipless pedal thing.

Does any road shoe go with any road pedal providing you have the right cleats? And does any road cleat fit on any road shoe?

I have just bought some Look Keo easy pedals and didnt want to end up buying a pair of shoes that were incompatible with the pedals.

I have been looking at the Shimano R077 2011 Road Cycling Shoes to go with the Look pedals.

Any help much appreciated :D

Nearly all pedals come with cleats. You just have to get shoes for the pedal system you are using. There are two. The 2 bolt SPD shoe aimed at MTB and touring which fits the SPD and other MTB style pedals and the 3 bolt road shoe which fits SPD-SL, Look, Speedplay, etc. Those Shimano R077 will fit your Keo pedals.
