i want to know if i can use these pedals with any sport shoe, for example, adidas shoes, shoes or need a hook?

No they will need a special shoe. The normal shoe is a lot wider then this pedal. If you are looking to just use normal sneakers some stores sell these clips that you shoe actuall fits in and that is what I had prior to these pedals. I will say that since I have converted to these, I wonder why I did not do this before, they make such a big difference.

Yes they will work as in, you will be able to pedal your bike, but it will be very uncomfortable after a short while and you will have very poor grip. These pedals were designed to be used with cycling specific shoes to which you screw the metal spd cleats (hook) that are included with them.

The pedal is two sided. One side accepts SPD cycling shoes. The other is just a flat normal pedal and you can use it in any shoes.

My husband really likes his pedals; he has a size 12EEE foot. The studs on the pedals help keep your foot on them when they are wet. Be sure you get the right diameter shaft for your bike. I believe there were two sizes.

They bolted onto my cheap factory pedals on my Trek just fine. The pedals, however, do need to be designed to use toe clips. You need two bolt holes in the front and a slot in the middle of the sides for the strap to go through. If your pedals came on a road bike, they are probably good to go. Any other style of bike, you'll more than likely have to buy a set of pedals.

Not sure because i don't have those particular cleats. But if you are using good shimano cleats then don't waste them on this pedal. Spend a little extra and get the PD M520L pedals... you won't regret it and you won't miss having the platform trust me..

I don't think so. Those are road bike pedals and spd cleats are for.mountain bike pedels

I ahve been around bikes my whole life and from my experience all pedals are threaded the same.. The pedals themselves are what are different. (Size, etc) I have 2 sets of wellgo pedals and am very happy with them, but I picked the right pedal for the type of riding I am doing.. The small pegs on these pedals grip very good on the bottom of the type of shoes I wear when I am mtn biking so I love it. but if I am fumbling around and the pedal hits my shin.. it will take a junk of skin!

There is a shoe chart accompanying the Amazon offering. When you buy pedals, you get cleats. And then attach them to the shoe. Find out what cleat style (there are several) you spinning cycle uses; you can order them through Amazon.

Sure, I ride with a couple of folks who do. Keep in mind you need a mountain bike shoe then. Most people use them on mountain bikes though because they shed mud well. Any pedals work as long as you have the right shoes/cleats. Road shoes and their associated cleats are lighter, but mountain bike shoes and their associated cleats are better for walking in.

The Sparco pedals definitely improve grip. Each of the holes in the pedals has a raised edge and these provide traction against your shoe's sole. If you spend any time on track where you need to use the pedals precisely, like when heel/toe downshifting, you'll really appreciate the added pedal grip. Also when your mounting the pedals you can get the brake and gas pedals closer together to make the heel/toe action easier.

You don't need clips, these pedals don't use them. Just use regular shoes, the toe fits into the plastic piece in front and then use the straps to adjust tension. Recommend adjusting tension off the bike, not while riding.

Yes. I use these on my MTN bike. They are very nice pedals. I can run to the store or just take a ride and not have to clip in. If your counting grams then maybe you should be looking for something different.

Hey Paul, I bought two sets of these pedals for my beater road bike and the bearings didn't last 100 mi. in either one before they started making noise. They both went onto the trash. I've got no idea whether they are compatible with foot straps. Spend a little more and get a better pedal. regards, Dave

This bikes comes with toe clips and strap that go over your foot and does not come with the clip-in pedals that you would use for cycling shoes. You can, however, add any type of pedals you want as they are standard pedals.

I think the pedals are a little too small for normal shoes but the pedals are still flat do I don't see why not. Matter of personal preference I suppose!!!

Pins will be mostly ineffective for winter boots but I can't think of any pedals that would be significantly better. These will work is my guess (I am not planning on trying it :)

No. You cant tell by the picture, but the "cleat type system" is integral to the pedals design. Meaning, just clip them in and then twist to remove them. Just like the cleat on your shoe. I have several sets and have used these for some time. They're a great piece of kit.
