but none of them appart from diadora do spd-r drilling  |
wrong. Shimano have brought out an adapter which will fit on all their spd sl soles, including the super light one, to convert it to spd-r. The adapter is very very very small (nothing like the huge bulkly thing carnac use!)
Should be in all shops now. If you do want it and cant get it, drop me a line and I can have some with you within a week (maybe not actually considering xmas post)

| Why dont you not use SPD-R pedals and get some new ones (SPD-SL for example)? |

cause sl are and look and act like look pedals and were only made cos a shimano rep saw lance was using an 1980s spd pedal and decided it looked bad for the image so made sl. Then other pros wanted them so they made a few more, then decided to drop spd-rs BUT apprently there is still a factory making spd-rs as they is still a ready supply of pedals and cleats..and now the adapters.

I want a nice set of metal pedals. These plastic offerings from Shimano and Look really leave me cold.
That is all i have to say about that!
I own a pair of specialized shoes, I put them on yesterday and have to admit that they are truly comfortable and great on the knees. Alas, as I have alreayd stated on this thread I am unable to get the right cleat position in them. Something to do with the cleat drillings not being in the right place for me. Utterly gutting shame as well, as they really are great on the old knees!
Going back to what Bongor said, I was wondering what I would be better off doing.
I can either buy something like a pair of Nike shoes with a flat sole and then get those foot bed things done by cyclefit and continue from there.
Or I can buy a set of the new carnacs and either not have hot beds or get hotbeds as well wit those.
or I can experiment with other pedals until I find a set that works with teh specialized.
What would YOU do?
Or.....
A set of Diadoras, SPD-r pedals, and foot bed/orthotics?! |
