Dial in your ride with Shimano SPD-SL cleats—choose Red, Blue, or Yellow for optimal power and comfort
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"Shimano SPD-SL cleats make it easy to customize pedal feel and efficiency. Whether I want a locked-in, fixed position with the Red cleats, a slight range of movement with the Blue, or a forgiving 6-degree float with the Yellow, these cleats offer the versatility I need for any ride. Their durable composite build holds up well, and the added grip makes walking easier when off the bike. Whether you're a pro-level rider or just getting started with clipless pedals, there's an SPD-SL cleat that fits your needs."
Power transfer and comfort are key when it comes to efficient pedaling, and Shimano SPD-SL cleats help us fine-tune our ride for peak performance. The Red, Blue, and Yellow cleats each cater to different riding styles—whether we prefer a completely fixed position for max efficiency, a touch of movement for balance, or a forgiving 6-degree float to reduce knee strain.
Built with a composite body and grip-enhancing TPU tips, these cleats deliver durability for long-term use while making it easier to walk off the bike. Seamless compatibility with Shimano SPD-SL pedals ensures we can dial in our ride, adjusting clip-in force and release tension for a truly customized fit. Whether sprinting, climbing, or just enjoying the road, these cleats help us push further with confidence.

Fresh new cleats

- I've put it through the wringer
They work well with my Shimano 105 pedals and Shimano 503 shoes. I matched the fit similar to my old pedals by lining up the holes, and so far no issues.

The Shimano SPD-L cleats are the best. Just look at the black and yellow color scheme. Boom! Look good, feel good. Mash the pedals and set a PR. Just do it.
