Interesting thing I noticed when comparing the new wahoo with the original zero. The engagement slots on the wahoo ones are wider than the original bow tie design on the zero. Seems to let me clip in easier with the new pedals.

If it is non wahoo style zero pedals, there are plenty of aftermarket options on sites like Amazon, eBay, and AliExpress.milanv wrote:I need to buy only new baseplates and small protector plate screws. I have asked Wahoo if it is possible to buy them separately - no, it is not...

You’re after cleat / shoe mounting hardware, correct? I think the Amazon, eBay, AliExpress recommendation may have been for titanium bowtie plate replacements.cloud9blue wrote:If it is non wahoo style zero pedals, there are plenty of aftermarket options on sites like Amazon, eBay, and AliExpress.milanv wrote:I need to buy only new baseplates and small protector plate screws.

You’re correct - cleats do not come with the curved wedges that shape the cleat to the shoe. They seem to only come with new pedals. And you say you contacted Wahoo and they don’t sell them as a spare?
Yes, I contacted them with kind question to buy new base plates (no shims) and small screws. They have responded me, that it is not sold separately as a spare part...customtune wrote: ↑Sun Apr 18, 2021 12:37 pmYou’re after cleat / shoe mounting hardware, correct?

The problem of aftermarket solutions is that they have one type of curve and I don't know, if it is correct one for my shoes.

For what it's worth, the original speedplay cleats (non wahoo) do come with shims. I bought a new set from Wiggle to get a bit more life out of my Speedplay Light Action pedals. I'll upgrade them when I get a new bike next year.
I also lost my box of shims from the old pedals and needed for new shoes I just bought. Anyway, the attached comes with non Wahoo cleats.

Does anyone know if the following is still available for SpeedPlay Zero Pedals (non wahoo):
Plastic Grease port covers
The screw/ bolt used to hold/ remove the spindle axle (mine are close to be stripped)
Bonus points for getting them in the US
TIA

KInd of a topic drift, but I sent an email to Tispindles.com (fka Ward Spindles) to enquire as to whether there were plans to add spindles for the new version of the pedals but was disappointed when I received the reply to find the proprietor indicated they were no longer in business. So curious if anyone has heard anything from J&L as to whether they plan to manufacture spindles for Wahoo's iteration of Speedplays? We have a number of companies that do custom CNC here in Houston and was thinking I might even be able to see if one of those companies could use the dimensions of the original spindles to make a one-off set of stainless spindles in 47 mm offset.

I will give it a few more months to see some alternatives on eBay and AliExpress. Wahoo is suppose to offer SS spindles of different lengths. But I haven’t seen any yet.ms6073 wrote:KInd of a topic drift, but I sent an email to Tispindles.com (fka Ward Spindles) to enquire as to whether there were plans to add spindles for the new version of the pedals but was disappointed when I received the reply to find the proprietor indicated they were no longer in business.
