Top Features of the Shimano SPD MTB Cleats
Shimano SPD MTB Cleats: Available options are SH51, SH52 and SH56 to fit the vast majority of SPD pedals.
- SH51 SPD single release cleats, recommended for all MTB SPD pedals except PD M858: release the cleat by twisting heel outwards. In layman's terms, this is the cleat that will fit 99% of SPD compatible pedals excluding the PDM858.
- SH52 SPD single release cleats, recommended for PDM858 pedal: release the cleat by twisting heel outwards. In layman's terms, this is the cleat that will fit all of the same pedals as above (SH51) and ALSO the PDM858. Unless you have the PDM858, Wiggle would recommend opting for the more popular SH51 option.
- SH 56: Designed to work with all open design pedals: allow your shoe to be disengaged by rolling or twisting the foot in any direction
- MTB
- Road
Please Note: SH51 and SH56 cleats do not come supplied with Cleat Nuts
About Pedal Cleats
Pedal cleats are the metal or plastic item that attaches to the sole of your cycling shoe and clips into your pedals. Most shoes will accept most popular cleats (MTB shoes will take MTB cleats and Road shoes, Road cleats) but some may require adaptors. You need the exact cleat to match your pedals although some have either single release (twist outwards) or multi-release (twist in either direction) options. Cleats feature 'float', this is the amount of natural movement your joints require your ankle to move during the pedal stroke and is an important factor.

Cleats that work
Unlike SH-56, these cleats let you pull up on the pedals without releasing, so if you use SPD pedals and that is your style you need these.

Yes these are better for MTB
The SH56 cleats are much better than the SH51 for trail riding where bike speed variations might mean you have to unclip in a hurry and get foot or feet to ground.
I use the DHB MTB shoes and the cleats fit no worries. Tension in pedals is at minimum and release is twist out or in and works just fine at this setting. Upward twist works but I think it isn't usable until the bike is going down :-)
I like these cleats.

Perfect spin class addition
Get more from your spin class
I chose to buy this item to attach to some Shimano Ladies MTB shoes for use in spinning classes. Better training for cycling. Train for the drive down and pull up.
Easy and comprehensive to fit just follow the diagrams, you just need a little allen key.
Best price found on internet (And I searched hard!).
Perfect item.
Search over, buy me

Spinning class must-have
Having bought the cycle shoes for spinning/RPM classes, only to find they came without cleats, I then struggled to identify the correct cleats. Once I'd successfully done that and made my purchase, I then discovered that I needed a 4mm hex key to secure the cleats to the shoes.
The cleats themselves are great. But if you're something of a novice/new to the world of cycle shoes it's worth knowing you'll need to buy the cleats separately.
On talking to others in my spinning/RPM classes who also use cycle shoes, most of them experienced a similar 'learning curve' when they purchased their first pair.

Are these cleats compatible with dhb Tri road shoes? Whats the difference between Multi and Standard release?
hey, Are these cleats compatible with dhb Tri road shoes? Whats the difference between Multi and Standard release? which one is better and how do they work?
cheers.
cheers.
Answers
Answer:
Standard release is ankle twist outwards. Multi release is twist out or in or up and out. If you are planning jumps multi release are no good.Multi release a great for newbies to clipless and also for more interesting XC terrain where you may need to release quickly. For example going uphill and hitting a boggy spot. No release means an unpleasant stop at the end of the fall so its important to be able to release.
Not sure about shoes but normally road shoes have a different set up.

Answer:
Should be.Multi release release at any angle, making them easier to get out of if you are not used to clipless pedals.

I am new to the spd pedal, which cleats would be the best for me
Answers
Answer:
From my research 51's are directly compatible with the SPD shoes only i.e. good for MTB's, hybrids, tri-cross etc, anything fitted with the SPD pedal. 52's can support SPD and step-ins. So it does depend on your use. Not sure about the 58'sCountry : United Kingdom

Answer:
Your pedals should come with the SH51 cleats as standard. I'd recommend putti them aside till you're more comfortable, and buying the SH56 ones to start off with.1 year, 6 months ago
Excuse my obvious lack of knowledge here. I have a pair of diadora road shoes, and I'd like to know if these cleats are compatibile with those AND the quick release pedals on the schwinn bikes at my spinning class. Many thanks Karen
Country : United Kingdom
Answers
Answer:
Yes, however they are the type that will release with multiple direction heel movement - not just the horizontal release. Because spin class will simulate hill climbing, these particular cleats can release with upward heel draw. Check the other 2 cleats if you're concerned about your heel disengaging on the 'hill tracks'.Hope this helps!
Answer:
You'd need to ask at your spinning class as they might not have the standard pedals fitted. Your instructor should know.2 years, 8 months ago
Answer:
Some Diadora road shoes will take 2 bolt cleat fittings, these cleats will fit only 2 bolt cleat fittings so please be sure that they have the 2 bolt holes in the middle of the toe box in order to fit the cleats.The pedals at your gym need to be Shimano compatible, ask a gym worker if they can find out for you what pedals are being used.

Answer:
Either SH51 or SH56. SH 56 are multi release and SH51 single. Multi release in my opinion are better for true XC MTB but no good for jumps etc.2 years, 10 months ago
Answer:
If you currently use the SH56 you should carry on using the SH56 on your new shoes. The fitting will be fine with the dhb M1 shoe. You can find the SH56 at the link below2 years, 11 months ago

Answer:
the plate normally comes with the shoe. There are two main types of shoe plate - road (3 fixings for Look / SPD SL) and MTB (2 fixings for SPD / Crank Bros etc.)Answer:
The nut plates were included in my shoes but when I bought the cleats they also had the nut plates so no need to buy new ones.

While repositioning the SPD cleats on my Time RXS shoes I managed to partially strip the thread on the shoe anchor plate. Can I buy replacement anchor plates, and if so how do I fit them? Alternatively, just how do I fit them since I could make my own (I have a tap & die set).
Country : United Kingdom
Answers
Answer:
The cleats I have came with backing plates (cleats arrived screwed into backing plates). The shoes I have say that you can pull out the insole from the shoe to access the backing plate. The backing plate should just come out of the shoe, providing the cleat is undone already.

Answer:
Cleat sets come with new threaded anchor plates, if your shoes need a special plate tese may not fit though?2 years, 9 months ago
Answer:
Cleats nuts are supplied with 2 bolt SPD cleats. You may need to cut away the sole of your shoe from the inside, underneath the insole and replace the nut there. You should be able to simply replace the peice of sole and insole to use the shoe again.2 years, 10 months ago
I have recently made the decision to move to cycling shoes to move my cycling up a notch and have purchased a pair of the above shoes but they do not seem to come with cleats and I was wondering as to which would be the best to purchase - I will also be using them in spin classes.

Answer:
Hi there, you don't get cleats with shoes, they tend to come with pedals. I'd advise the multi release cleats for starters as there's less chance of you keeling over by mistake. some of Shimanos one sided pedals actually come with multi release cleats as standard so you get to save some dosh2 years, 2 months ago
Answer:
Cleats are specific to pedals so cleats are always supplied with the pedals instead of the shoes. In this case, because you are going to spin classes, you won't need to purchase the pedals yourself, only the cleats. Most spin classes will use 2 bolt spd pedals so the SH51 cleat is the best to go for. I would recommend contacting the spin class organisers though to be sure, they should be able to recommend a cleat type without any issues.2 years, 3 months ago
