I bought my new fancy road shoes with a great carbon fibre sole, but....... My old (shimano road
bought the first day the SPD version came out) had a recessed pocket for the clip, all was right
with the world.
These have "pontoons". They are supposed to keep the cleats off from hitting the ground. The rubber
deteriorates almost immediately. If you haven't seen these beasts they are molded rubber on a metal
shim that attaches to the cleat thru bolts.
The recessed cleat was my main reason for going to SPD in the first place. If the pontoons don't
work that advantage is gone.
Does anyone know of a fix. I am going to try adhering high grade shoe rubber to the bottom directly
as a replacement. I am open to suggestion. I still need the walkablity feature.
Thanks,
