ABSTRACT:
An automatic bicycle pedal comprises a fixed front locking arrangement 3 to lock the end of a cleat on a cyclist's shoe and a movable locking arrangement 4 to lock the rear end of the cleat. The movable arrangement 14, prestressed by a resilient block 5, is displaceable under the pressure of the cyclist's shoe between an open position permitting the insertion of the cleat between the two arrangements 3 and 4 and a closed position ensuring the securement of the cleat of the shoe to the automatic pedal. The resilient block 5 of e.g. elastomer is compressed between two walls 6 and 7 that are movable relative to each other.
