See link in post.<br /><br />I live in SPDs and we have hardwood floors.<br /><br />I also prefer the cleat pushed almost all the way back.<br /><br />99.95% of non-cyclists never know that i have cycling shoes on.

I have wider feet and tend to get this style of SPD's for that reason.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4501437224497800843.post-35477953040674230412011-06-02T09:22:11.342-07:002011-06-02T09:22:11.342-07:00Bryan - yes, but it's scored, so it's not ...Bryan - yes, but it's scored, so it's not like you have to cut through 1/2" of sole. <br /><br />I should mention too, that it doesn't have to be dangerous. I cut mine out with my pocket knife while sitting on the couch. <br /><br />It would be easy if done right: say, by securing the shoe in a vise and using a box cutter to cut along the scored lines.John Spearehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07187638368645707099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4501437224497800843.post-10959540794199514882011-06-02T09:14:36.867-07:002011-06-02T09:14:36.867-07:00So you have to cut out the cleat area before you c...So you have to cut out the cleat area before you can put on the cleat?Bryan Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03166836625799649317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4501437224497800843.post-44950486140668054192011-06-01T20:41:54.283-07:002011-06-01T20:41:54.283-07:00Stine: fasciitis -- that's the scenario.
