Good replacement SPD-SL cleats
Road cycling cleats are engineered to wear out over time. And, SPD-SL cleats have several very handy indicators built into them to tell you when you need to replace them. As my initial set of SPD-SL cleats neared their end I picked up these replacements to have on hand. They are a spot on match to the cleats that came with my pedals and are of excellent quality in my opinion. SPD-SL cleats are nice in that they have built in pods to help with walking. I had previously tried LOOK cleats/pedals and found them to be a walking hazard on smooth surfaces. Not to mention they easily got dirty which affected the smooth float of the cleats. SPD-SL fixes some of these issues by keeping the smooth surface of the cleat elevated away from walking surfaces. If you walk through mud you're still going to get them dirty, but smooth surfaces or black top won't pose much of a problem anymore. As I mentioned earlier SPD-SL cleats have built in indicators for when they need to be replaced. The one I recall off the top of my head is several marking lines along the two little pods in the back. As you walk on these those pods will slowly (or not so slowly) wear down. When you get to the last line it's time to replace them as much more wear and you'll be scraping the smooth surface of the cleat on the ground. The yellow cleats allow some side to side float so that your foot is not locked into a single position. I find that this is ideal for me as it is gentler on my knees. The serious racers out there will probably prefer the red cleats which have no float and so you do not lose energy in side to side motion. At my current rate of use it looks like I'll be going through about one set of cleats every year to year and a half. This seems to hold pretty true to how long it takes me to wear out a chain/rear cassette. All in all I'm very happy with my switch to SPD-SL. I do recommend though extending the life of your cleats by purchasing some "cleat covers." These are cleat specific covers which fit over the cleat and protect them while you are walking. I used a set with these cleats at last year's MS150 as I walked on dirt, grass, mud, etc... They kept most of the crud off of my cleats providing a better riding experience as I hit the trail again.

These are the higher quality cleats!
There are two types of SPD-SL cleats out there, and one of them has been unofficially recalled so I can't believe they're still on the market. THESE ARE THE GOOD ONES! They work very well, and although ALL cleats wear down eventually, these feel very sturdy right to the end. The last pair I bought lasted me all season. Took me almost 2000 miles and a whole lot of walking to wear them down! The cleats come with all the necessary washers and bolts to go right into your SPD-SL compatible shoe. Just make sure to do your research and align them properly, or you'll have foot problems. The pressure during pedaling should be centered over the ball of your foot! Oh yea, and also re-check bolt tightness every now and again, or you might lose some of them. The 6 DEGREE FLOAT thing is basically a design feature that allows your feet to rotate a bit laterally, even though they're securely clipped in. This helps your feet/ankles/legs assume a more comfortable position during the ride while holding your feet to the pedal. If you're not a pro, I would recommend these cleats over those that do not have 6D FLOAT, simply for the comfort factor. They still hold your feet securely despite the float, and I've been quite happy with them. Just FYI: The good cleats have a yellow front lip that's longer, and the section between the two rear bolt cutouts is smooth. The bad ones have a ridged section in between the cut-outs. Be careful, don't get the bad ones!

Great cleat for road bikes
Likes 1. i like the that this cleat has a broad base, i feel like i can pull harder when i climb than with the SHIMANO SH51 Bike Cleats 2. i feel less pressure/hot spots than i did with the SHIMANO SH51 Bike Cleats 3. This clips offers three types that have different levels of float (foot movement) when clipped in, i like the yellow which offer the most float. if you have been using SHIMANO SH51 Bike Cleats and the pedals that go with them that allow you to clip in on both sides, you will have to get use to the fact that the pedals that work with these cleats are one sided clip ins. These cleats can take a little longer to get positioned correctly so you may need to do a couple of test fits/rides to get them where you want them if you suffer from your toes going numb during rides. Also these clips need to be replace more frequently than the SHIMANO SH51 Bike Cleats due to the material difference (plastic v metal). However you can easily get 2000 miles out of these cleats, i have done 5000 on a pair but then one broke on a climb so i don't suggest going that far on them.

My third pair of these, and as usual they are excellent
I'm a cyclist with expensive taste but a dog-catcher's budget. Over the years I've learned to avoid cheap stuff because it doesn't last and therefore doesn't really save money. Nowhere is this more true than cycling consumables. My Giro race shoes are nearly a decade old but, freshly cleaned and polished, they look almost new and perform as new. The cleats that came with them wore out over a couple of seasons, so I've been replacing them with the cleats featured here. There some controversy in this comments section about whether these cleats are counterfeit. I can find no indication of that but am aware the Chinese can replicate almost anything to perfection. In this case whether they are counterfeit or not is immaterial because they provide the same performance and lifespan as they originals they replace. I'm on my third set of replacement cleats from this source, and like the others, these install easily on my Giro shoes, fit my Dura Ace pedals perfectly, and give me a reasonable lifespan -- up to two seasons of moderate-level riding. I recommend them highly.

Son calas para pedales SPD-SL, diseñadas para ofrecer una combinación equilibrada entre rendimiento y comodidad, siendo la opción más popular entre ciclistas de ruta. Su diseño con 3° de flotación permite un ligero movimiento lateral del pie, lo que reduce la tensión en las rodillas y mejora la eficiencia del pedaleo.
