The three screws pin in place a place that lies on top of the clips holding them in place.
AFAIK they are meant to be used with flat shoes and have no kind of clipless system.
Assuming you're talking of the bottom (pedal) picture.

They are both correct. However many used look pedals on the DA groupset. That's something you can easily find for cheap.
And no, albeit the toe straps ones could be used with flat shoes without the cages, I'd recommend to keep the straps and use flat shoes anyway, like I do on mine. Without straps they'd be too slippery.I use the Chrome Kusk (not the spd ones), and they slide in a threat. Used the Kusk spd ones and they somehow get stuck and don't slide in as easily.

yeah bring out all the rossins. I got a "cool bike bro" and a nod from a guy on a blue rossin when they were both dodgy singlespeed conversions, mine possibly with bullhorns. how often does that happen between the dodgy peugeot conversion crowd? hopefully never.
Anyway the pedals are baffling me. Velobase has these which look pretty reasonable:
But then ebay has these:
why does it look like it takes a cleat and also has toe straps? do you reckon you can unscrew those three screws and use them with flat shoes?
Put the drivetrain together on the bike today and then cut the the gear housing too short so I've to go and get some more tomorrow but it's then ready for a test ride!
