Shimano SPD-SL Replacement Cleats

These are always my "go to" cleat. No issues. Easy to install and adjust. Works perfect with any SPD-SL pedal. Highly recommend.

Have been using these cleats for years and find them reliable and long lasting (just don't walk around too much in them.) Gives a solid foundation on the pedal, and the blue ones have just the right amount of float.

If you're confident in your bike fit and cleat placement, you can't beat 0 degree float cleats for your Shimano pedals! They're the best for power transfer.

Renews my stance in my sidi shoes

I've used Shimano cleats since my first pair of specialty shoes. The colored plastic parts tend to wear out sooner than I'd like but that's neither here nor there. The reason I'm writing a review, though, is that Shimano is no longer using those nasty plastic clam packages. My purchase came in a recyclable paper box. It won't change the world or solve the world's problem with plastics, but it's a move in the right direction. Good on Shimano.

I have tried the copies of the genuine Shimano cleats sold on some websites and have found they don't clip in or out smoothly and the money saved is not worth the poor performance. The genuine Shimano cleats always work as intended and the new packaging is both eco-friendly and easier to open.

The Shimano SPD-SL cleats are ideally suited for cyclists at all levels. They provide maximum float without sacrificing power transfer. Also, they are extremely durable as long as you don't walk down stone pathways on a frequent basis. They are a fine investment.

I buy the blue cleats and they are perfect. The tension is adjustable, and the function is well thought out. I have yet to use a cleat that I liked better. Just top notch. it's a 6 star cleat.

treat your shoes to some new cleats

Been using these since their very beginning. They outwear most others and perform flawlessly. Not much else to add.

Great cleat and fairly long lasting. I change out every 1,000 to 1,500 miles because I end up walking around in these cleats and the yellow bits will get ragged. I have come out of these cleats stomping on the pedals, out of the saddle, when going through a corner. So I may try the lesser float cleats, though I've been through many pairs of these cleats with just a couple of incidents.

Always get these Shimano SPD-SL blue cleats. Work great, just enough flex in the float without too much.

They work! Need I say more? Replace them when the black plastic wears stretch their life by using Shoe Goo or similar product to replace worn off yellow/blue/red rubber. It works.

Chose blue cleats after many years of riding the stock yellow ones. Quicker and more confident click in out. Don't really notice the difference in flat, I guess my pedaling style is pretty consistent. These OEM Shimano cleats last forever, unless you walk all over the place on pavement with them on, which is foolish.

These are the real thing, I purchased Amazon knock offs and had annoying squeaking issues. The knock off cleats are not a good fit to the pedal

Just switched to Shimano Ultegra pedals after a few years on Look Keo pedals (which I stopped used because the metal plate had lost adhesion to the pedal body). I like the near-zero float of these cleats - feels secure. But the wear on the cleats from walking was much faster than what I experienced with the Look cleats. On both shoes, the outside cushion was gone in a week of riding, and further wear on the plastic under the cushion has resulted in a tilted walking surface and less grip. I know, who walks on road cleats? But it's different. Still, the grip to the pedal is good.

Cleats arrived on time and as described-workmanship quality is high.

You do not slip when walking! The cleats are easy in and out. But the best, when you stop and put your foot on the ground you do not slip. The yellow contact points, keep your foot from slipping.

Decided not to take away a star because one set of the cleats had a bad screw. That screw did cause me to have to get a threading tool and chase the threads in one of my shoes, very scary. Don't buy these till they go on sale, the price has doubled on them in the last couple of years. I also tried the cheap chinese knockoffs, they worked ok but they only last a few weeks and the colored knobs on the cleats fall off after a few days...

Used on a Giant TCR road bike. Provides easy in and easy out of the clips. Allows for good power deployment to the pedals.
