Reviews over the

Shimano SPD-SL

Stable plates that give excellent comfort. Lasts about a year (7000km) I am quite satisfied with it. Avoid

Pros & Cons

Expected Shimano quality

Pros & Cons

I like Shimano SPD SL, because I have a little bit space on the pedals to adjust my feet more comfortably during cycling.

Pros & Cons

Blue cleats give just enough clearance to avoid knee pain and ensure good power transmission. Much more stable than the yellow ones where I always feel like my pedal is coming loose. Much more wear-resistant than Look cleats and stepping is also smooth, especially in combination with the Shimano cleat covers.

Pros & Cons

The Shimano SPD-SL cleats not only offer great grip and stability, but they have greatly increased my confidence on the bike. Thanks to their durability and performance, I feel powerful and connected to my bike every ride.

Pros & Cons

The Shimano SPD-SL are easy to attach to your click shoes. You can adjust them to your liking. Just starting out with click shoes? Then adjust them a bit looser so that engaging and disengaging them on the bike is easy. Do you want a tighter fit and already have experience with click shoes? Then you attach them a bit tighter. You can do this as you wish, which is ideal! A must-have for cyclists!

Pros & Cons

Strong, durable Shimano cleats. For regular cycling use.

The product is easy to attach and of good quality

Pros & Cons

Good service, quality is up to scratch and fast delivery

Pros & Cons

For years, I have been using this type of plate to my complete satisfaction. And when I need new ones, it's easy to choose.

Pros & Cons

You just cycle away with it

Pros & Cons

Fine pictures, look nice. Pleasant runners on them too. Easy to assemble

Pros & Cons

Good product, does what it is meant for. This is my first road bike experience and after a long stretch of cycling, it is still difficult to get your shoes off the pedals(tired legs) also practice this a few times when you are new to cycling....

Pros & Cons

Fitted them immediately to my shoes and they ride great!

Pros & Cons

Perfect product, sufficiently tested and with approved

Pros & Cons

super fine plates that do what they are supposed to do. click in and out easily.

Pros & Cons

Super quality, nothing to complain about. Also easy to assemble!

Pros & Cons

On competing pedals for 30 years. Switched to Shimano ultegra 2 years ago. Only happiness, no more noise. Started with blue shims and switched to yellow, perfect.

Pros & Cons

Good

Pros & Cons

Fixing using the explanation video is quite easy with the good practical tips.

Pros & Cons

Was installed in no time and work excellent

Pros & Cons

The plates arrived the very next day and could therefore be adjusted immediately at my bike-fitting. clipping in and out of the pedals is extremely smooth. Completely satisfied :-)

Pros & Cons

Personally nicer than the yellow plates because there is no play at the front. But of course that is personal.

Pros & Cons

Easy to fit, clicking in and out is smooth. Use a torque wrench to fit them, 4nm is about right. With care you should get about a year of use.

Pros & Cons

Fitted the plates myself, feet nice and straight forward, bit of play left right, feeling of good control with the Lake cc 218 shoes. Another stop at Mantel to check the plates with a torque wrench.

Paar keer mee gereden en zijn heel duurzaam met veel mogelijkheden om de pedaal positie volledig naar eigen voorkeuren in te stellen

Pros & Cons

Easy to mount on your cycling shoe.

Good quality and fast delivery! Bit unfortunate that it is shipped in a big box instead of letterbox package.

Pros & Cons

Exactly from what I expect.

Standard product. High quality and durability.

Pros & Cons

Good cleats from shimano. Nothing to complain about.

Pros & Cons

easy to assemble

Wedges put on for the first time for a club outing; it's growing and going well.

Pros & Cons

The best value for money and with Shimano's guarantee.

Pros & Cons

Everything is right

Good as always ☺️

Pros & Cons

Top product

Bought these plates many times before. excellent quality. Neat and fast delivery by Mantel!

Pros & Cons

Product looks like in the picture!

Perfect to my shoes

Very good material.....I will buy the cleat cover to make them last longer.

Pros & Cons

I have been using these plates for years and am very well satisfied with them.

Pros & Cons

Easy and good assembly with supplied bolts and plates. Good quality and longevity with normal use.

Pros & Cons

Originals last significantly longer than cheap goods...

Pros & Cons

Top. No problems

Pros & Cons

Good quality

Pros & Cons

They fit fine, but feel like they have a little more "play" than the old ones. Next will be the blue version, just a bit less clearance.

Pros & Cons

Exactly as it should be

Pros & Cons

Ultimately the best value for money at Mantel.

these are exactly the ones you want also in terms of spelling, not too much and not too little

Pros & Cons

Great product. Received quickly and within 5 minutes the pedals were on. I am a novice cyclist and so far I like it very much!

Pros & Cons

I use the yellow version with slack (better for my knees). Used to come in plastic blister packaging but nowadays in a cardboard box => better for the environment.

Pros & Cons

Works very well

We've been using these shims for several years and are very satisfied. For Shimano fans.

Pros & Cons

Great pictures and easy assembly

Pros & Cons

Fine thing is the old ones were installed after a bike position measurement. New set can be fitted exactly the same so everything is correct.

Pros & Cons

just fine

Good durable cleats

Pros & Cons

Good cleats for Shimano pedals. The colored part (red in my case) breaks off very quickly, which fortunately does not affect the engagement itself.

Pros & Cons

Easy to montage, everything is fit, and very good price

As always smooth service

Pros & Cons

Ideal to assemble also for beginners with an instructional video (numerous to be found online).

Pros & Cons

But very fast delivery as sltijd at mantel

Pros & Cons

Easy to put on your shoe.

Pros & Cons

Drive the SPD-SL for years! Love the yellow with some play.

Pros & Cons

Excellent system

Great cleats for SPD-SL pedals. They give plenty of room to move around in your pedal, while still staying secure.

Pros & Cons

really good quality at a fair price thank you I highly recommend these pedals have the advantage of having the axles offset, which avoids rubbing the cranks.

Pros & Cons

Very satisfied with the product.

The cleats are very simple to install once you know how to adjust them. Furthermore, the click system is also solid and easy to use. Wear does go pretty hard if you have to click in and out a lot.

Pros & Cons

Fine cleats

Pros & Cons

Expensive but solid

Pros & Cons

Deze schoenplaatjes geven een goede overbrenging van de energie, met behoud van de nodige bewegingsvrijheid om knieklachten te voorkomen.

Pros & Cons

For that offer. Top

Pros & Cons

nice offer couldn't pass up

Pros & Cons

Fine!

Pros & Cons

Have been using the yellow SPD-SL for several years to my complete satisfaction. Freedom of movement is ideal for me knee.

Pros & Cons

The cleats are outstanding and fully meet expectations.

Pros & Cons

Was not used to cycling with pictures,on you tube find information to place the pictures the right way.

Pros & Cons

Yellow has always been my first choice. I also ride a lot of MTB and then the yellow is most similar to the MTB blocks.

Pros & Cons

Easy mounting

Easy mounting

I use the yellow cleats and I'm now going to try the blue ones for less angle of movement on the pedals. I'm still very satisfied with Shimano equipment, so I'm sticking with their cleats and pedals!

Pros & Cons

Red always fits like a glove slightly less freedom than with yellow

Pros & Cons

Always rode with red, these will last almost all summer if used correctly (i.e. not running half marathon on the shoes). Assembly is easy, but with the red variety you have to be careful to be very precise with the assembly to avoid injury.

Pros & Cons

Great product, easy assembly

Easy to install.

Pros & Cons

Fast delivery, top quality - what more could you want, except that spring is coming...

This was the first time I needed click pedals. This was exactly what I was looking for

Pros & Cons

Angular freedom .Shimano reliability.

Classics, absolutely nothing to complain about, last me just under a year, but then I use them very intensively. I am glad that Shimano also thinks about the environment and nowadays packs them in recycled boxes instead of plastic.

Pros & Cons

Standard shimano cleats with clearance reduce the chance of knee pain.

Pros & Cons

Been cycling with them for years and like them very much!

Pros & Cons

Still satisfied with the model

Pros & Cons

The cleats fit perfectly.

Pros & Cons

Not much to say about the pictures but all the more about the price and fast delivery, again this was great!

Pros & Cons

Nij the imitation plates the yellow caps come off prematurely and then you slip. The longer life makes them cheaper in the end, they are usually about 8 euros more expensive than another brand, but you have less misery for 100 euros.

Pros & Cons

Great product. have been using it for years!

Pros & Cons

Super, the force is well transmitted with angular freedom around a central point.

Pros & Cons

Easy to assemble and sit securely on shoes. Meets expectations, but note that you do have to replace them from time to time. If you walk on bad ground you have to replace them faster too.

Pros & Cons
