  • Just whilst I was looking. Thought I would add this. Please add to the list.

    Current
    Specialized Sport Road
    Mavic (something that RPM has)
    Bont A-One
    Exustar SK204 Track
    Cheap ones from decathlon

    Old
    Shimano SH R214

  • some adidas shoes do (i think mavic are made by adidas?)

  • Wiggle/DHB R1

  • while we're talking about it - what's the big deal about SPD-Rs?

    According to Pete

    the first rule of SPD-Rs is that we don't talk about SPD_Rs ;)

  • Current
    Specialized Sport Road
    Mavic Avenir
    Bont custom drillings
    Exustar SK204 Track
    Exustar E-SR990
    Exustar E-SR221
    EXUSTAR E-SR432
    (pretty much all exustar road shoes)
    Cheap ones from decathlon
    Wiggle DHB R1

    Old
    Shimano SH R214

    And many shoes can be modified by getting 5mm Tee nuts and drilling the holes for them.

  • mine are ruined. May need some more if I race again this year

  • Ebay for the Exustars unless you fancy getting jiggy with a drill?

    I'm considering going back to spd-r and drilling my bonts as the exustar "track" pedals I bought last year have developed a nasty amount of play quite quickly.

    Why can't people make things that just work?

  • And some other Shimano shoes from that era (at least some blue/yellow ones with a plastic sole, can't remember the type SH-R1xx)
    I use Northwave Evolution with original NW adapter plates.

    Must get round to making my SPD-SL 'Proper mod'

    Anyone got any old spare ones (current shape) I can saw up to find a good attachment point?

    Ordered some of these

    Hoping I can just bolt them on

  • you can also use the SPD-R adaptor plate on any "Look Compatible" 3 hole shoe.

    Part number: SM-SH85

  • I've an old pair of sidis with an adapter plate. You are welcome to have.

  • But they increase your stack height massively and don't feel too secure, I had some, didn't like them.

  • You're right: always better without adapters.
    But if the shoe soles are very thin, like mine, it can be absolutely okay.
    I must say that I use Northwave adapters that fit the shoes exactly.

    And, SPD-R systems builds very low, so it compensates a bit.

  • Got a set of these adaptors with a pair of Adidas.

    Let me know if any of you can use them.
