That's the problem, I have probably 8 pair of X2's which translates to probabably $1,500 in buying 8 pair of Zero's... A windfall for Wahoo if everyone has to do that. Maybe that was part of their strategy when they bought the company...

Has anyone tried using the Zero cleats with X-series pedals?
I know Speedplay tells you not to, but I recall some folks on the forum saying it could be done. Any first-hand experience? |

maybe some enterprising chinese fabricator will start making the X cleats....they're already making axles, bowties, and other bits of X pedal hardware on the aftermarket.

Retention and disengagement between cleat and pedal can be a safety issue, so this is probably not a good idea. |

Given how much the cleats sell for, it's hard to see why Wahoo wouldn't want to keep selling the cleats. It would be really lame of Wahoo to discontinue the cleats.

Why did Wahoo buy Speedplay only to kill it? What am I missing here?

I'm a big fan of the X series (I've been using them for 25 years) and I'd be sad if they disappeared. |

I'd rather hoard X-2 pedals and cleats than hand sanitizer, frankly.

From Excel:
------------------------ Hi Robert, We are getting very little information from Wahoo about what they are planning to do with anything. We will still attempt to carry whichever parts they do decide to offer. I don’t think any of the other cleats will work for you, they are specific to the type of pedal. As soon as we can get a solid order going all the items will reappear on our website. Thanks! Helen ----------------------- <Expletive deleted>

This really sucks, I need new cleats for my x series. Looks like most places online are sold out and Ebay is full of high priced replacements. |

Anyone know if there is a difference between the V2 & slimline cleats? Last edited by makoti; 03-07-2020 at 11:12 AM. |

I'm more concerned about them discontinuing the Frogs. At least with the X's I could suffer through the cost of replacing a few sets of pedals and still have something somewhat close to what I had before. There's nothing else really like the Frogs, which I feel are the best touring'ish type of pedal out there (especially if you're already accustomed to the X's for more pure road shoes).
I still use SPD's for mountain bike & real off-roading. But for walkable-shoe urban/touring/gravel'y stuff, the Frogs rule. Bummed. In some of those threads citing "what's the best piece of cycling gear you've ever had", X's and Frog's were always near the top of my list. . . |
