Default SPD compatible pedals?

On my roadbike i'm using shimano spd pedals which i don't really like because the pedals don't 'hang' the right way to click into them without watching.. <br /><br />As i have a rather good pair of Sidi Action shoes which i really like i don't want to have to buy a pair of (sidi) road shoes to be able to use some other brand of pedals...<br /><br />Are there any good type of pedals which are compatible with spd cleats/shoes?

Try VP-pedals, they have pedals with there own bio-cleat system and also Spd compatible pedals and they happen to be cheap also. Bio cleat is a very good system and it uses the same bolt distance and cleat size like SPD.<br /><br />2 options VP SPD or Boi cleats on your shoes<br />

Sidi's website does a great job of illustrating which pedals can be used with which shoes and how to install them (and if any adapters are needed).<br /><br />Also, be sure you are talking spds and not spd-rs (r is for ROAD)
