SHIMANO’s colorful SPD-SL CLEAT are the secure, reliable interface between your cycling shoes and pedals. They are the critical contact point where power is transferred to the bike and where we turn our pedaling effort into speed. Choosing the right cleat style is important not only for pedaling efficiency and power transfer but also for keeping your knees, ankles, feet, and the rest of your body happy with each pedal stroke.
There are three different types of SHIMANO that are designated by three colors: RED, YELLOW, and BLUE. Each has different float ranges and pivot point locations, and they are designed with various rider biomechanics and riding styles in mind. Float refers to a certain amount of angular rotation that a cleat, and thus the rest of a shoe can freely move before it meets resistance. In other words, it’s how far your toes point toward or away from the bike before meeting resistance.
Different amounts of float help accommodate different riding styles or help with physiological nuances such as flexibility (or lack thereof), past injuries, or knee pain. While float can help reduce stress on joints and make for a more comfortable pedaling movement, too much float can feel slightly less powerful if your foot moves around too much. Chat with us for help in deciding which level of float is right for you and your riding needs.
The system provides all the adjustments and options for the perfect fit, and a little extra help can go a long way in dialing in a personalized setup.
