A few years ago a company called Retrofitz made plates for installing SPD cleats in normal shoes.

They obviously never caught on because they've since disappeared entirely. However they're just the thing I need for a project.

Bit of a long shot but I'm sure someone will have bought some and never gotten around to fitting them - if you have a kit in a box somewhere I'd pay the original price for them.

If you don’t find any, would you be interested in a pair of size 9 Giro Rumbles for £postage? The upper is knackered but the cleat plate in the sole looks a bit like those and looks like it would come out without too much persuasion. Pm me if interested.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
