Redshift’s Mousetrap is an easy SPD to flat pedal adapter
Sometimes you just want to jump on a bike with SPDs and not have to clip into the pedals. Solutions to this have long existed, but they’re often difficult to install and remove.
Redshift Sports’ new Mousetrap makes this a one-handed, tool-free operation via a clever cam mechanism that wedges the system in place. At just 10 mm thick, the glass-filled nylon platforms are designed to fit any SPD-compatible pedal and provide decent traction for around-town errands. When not installed, they snap together via magnets.
The company has teased that versions for SPD-SL, Crankbrothers, and Look Keo systems will be released later this year. Expect to pay US$60 / £55 / €65 AU$105 for a pair of these. More at Redshift Sports.
