Sounds like you got the SPD-R pedals. Those require a special bolt pattern.

ShimaNO made these and forced the industry to change bolt patterns. Now they went to a more standard 3 bolt pattern, but now they have lots of users stuck with that design. How nice of them.

Find out if you have the SPD-R or the new SPD-SL
