About half way round Whites at Afan today I managed to snap the spring on one side of my m520 spd's. I was wondering why I couldn't clip in! The spring has broken where it meets the tension adjustment bolt. Are these springs available anywhere as a spare?? Thanks for any advice/answers!

    Unless you can find somebody with a broken pair it looks like a new pair of pedals but at around £20 hardly a budget breaker.
    I've added a signature to prove it is still possible.

    Just get some new ones. You really don't want to be taking the cage apart anyway, major pain to try and reassemble.
    It's easier to ask for forgiveness than for permission.

    I've bought a new bike....ouch - result
    Can I buy a new bike?...No - no result
