Spiked wheel on a rider's boot (4)

I believe the answer is:

spur

(Other definitions for spur that I've seen before include "Goad as for a horse" , "Incite to action" , "Rider's heel wheel" , "offer encouragement" , "Device to urge on a horse" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
