I'm switching from Shimano's M515 pedals to Speedplay Frogs. Are my Shimano MO-38 shoes easily
compatible? According to Speedplay's web site, yes, but since the soles have already been cut out
for SPDs, are they still usable with another cleat system? If not, are there compatibility issues of
which I should be aware in shopping for new shoes? That is, are some shoes more or less adaptable to
Frogs? Besides fit and comfort (and cost), what other questions should I be asking myself in
choosing new shoes? Thanks. --Roy Zipris

True, but you may need to trim the lug a bit so the cleat will fit. 5 minutes work with a utility
knife, tops.Pat
