Speedplay Standard Tension Cleat

Great choice

Best quality, conform and security. My best decision was changed to wahoo.

Price doubled!

Wahoo bought speedplay and immediately double the price of their cleats. I think it’s time to look at Shimano pedals.

Cleat cover impossible to seat

I have struggled for hours to get the cleat cover to snap onto one of the cleats. I’m going to have to take it into a bike shop and pay them to do it for me. You should engineer a better solution.

Long lasting!

The walkable cleats are a HUGE improvement from the earlier Speedplay branded cleats without the walkable cover. I do wish the inside 'C' metal spring clip was still a little sturdier but I love the comfort I have from the float of the cleats. I have been using Wahoo/Speedplay for 20+ years.

Didn’t Work

They weren’t compatible with my original speedplay pedals.

I’ve been using Speedplay pedals

I’ve been using Speedplay pedals for years. Love them. I like these clips. I live in cornfield country. So when I ride, I stop in the small town fuel station to top off my water bottle. These clips makes walking inside for the water so much better

Very, very difficult clip in and out.

Familiarity:

I've used it several times

I’ve been using Speedplay pedals since 2003. The Wahoo standard cleats are very different. They are extremely difficult to clip into and to unclip. I rate them as dangerous as unclipping in an emergency requires anticipating using lots of extra force to unclip. I don’t recommend. They should be recalled.

Near Perfection

I ride 120+ miles per week. The new cleats replaced a pair that were several years old. They were super easy to install. Spring tension seemed overly firm for the first ride, but I quickly got used to it. The new cleats better for walking - no more digging up wooden floors! Highly recommended.

Don’t get these if you have Speedplay-created pedals - Wahoo created incompatibility!

Unfortunately, Wahoo slightly changed the design of speedplay pedals and cleats, which I did not know before ordering these. Since I have multiple sets of Speedplay-created speedplay pedals on bikes and the new cleats do not work well with those, the purchase of these cleats was unfortunately a waste of money. I wish I had known about the incompatibility in advance (not to mention what a bad decision it was for wahoo to create that incompatibility!)

I've put it through the wringer

Wahoo has taken all the negative aspects of the Speedplay cleat system and redesigned them out. After a brief break in these cleats are amazingly reliable and durable as well as comfortable to walk on.
