SHIMANO SPD Cleat Set Multi-Directional Release Type SM-SH56

The SHIMANO SPD Cleat Set Multi-Directional Release Type SM-SH56 is perfect for mountain bike shoes. They are compatible with all mountain bike shoes. I have used them for years. They are very comfortable and well made from steel. There is some limited float adjustment and they are very easy to install.

These are the real deal. I was worried about fakes, but at least the set I got is working great and appears to be the real deal. I've been a huge fan of the MR cleat for well over 10 years. I use them primarily for road biking, and I've never failed to blow out when I need to, while they hold me in beautifully otherwise.

These worked nearly perfectly. I bought these to replace the originals that were NOT multi-directional release. While they are easier to release, it's not significant. I can certainly play with the other settings to make it easier but thought there would be a bigger difference directly after the install. Anyway, they work and don't have any true complaints. Maybe my expectations were out of whack, so temper yours, too.

I just got a Schwinn IC4 stationary bike for using inside during the snowy weather when I can’t bike outside. I had trouble finding out what cleat you need on your bike shoes to connect to the bike pedal. These SM-SH56 cleats are exactly what I needed. They were so easy to install on the bike shoes, even for an old grandmother! The metal is very sturdy. It is very easy to turn your foot a bit and click in and out of the bike pedal. It is so much better to spin when your foot is connected to the pedal as you can pull up and push down. You get a better workout. They were a great price also. I recommend these.

Easier to use, durable, should be replaced more frequently than you think. Yes, this is now "the old style" but they still work as well as you remember. Frankly I'm not sure what good an upgrade could do and am not bothering to find out.

Great fit, thank you

I bought a popular knock off brand of these cleats simply to save about $6-$7. That was a mistake because I had issues with the left cleat not disengaging. I bought a pair of these Shimano cleats and they have been great. I should’ve went with my gut instinct but in the end I’m happy with the Shimano quality.

These cleats really do release easily, moreso than standard cleats. They are about as easy as my road bike Speedplay pedals.

Original...

Fit on my Specialized shoes AFTER I bought a 3 bolt to 2 bolt Shimano conversion kit. Work perfect for spin class and solid Shimano branded product.

Excellent product. Performs as expected. No issues.

Works perfectly. Good cleats for spinning shoes.

We bought another no name brand and the screws would not be flushed. So we got these, Shimano brand, more expensive, and fits great.
