A Question about Shimano America SPD Cleat Sets

By ClubRider on April 11, 2008

Deedub, I am not so sure that the information you are providing is correct? Crank Brothers cleats are compatible with all SPD compatible shoes. (Most mountain bike shoes, and some entry level road shoes - the close side by side hole pattern) However, the specific crank brother cleat that attaches to the shoe - and that comes with the pedals - only works with crank brothers pedals. It is my understanding that the crank brothers cleats are NOT compatible with Shimano mountain cleats, and vise versa?

Deedub is correct. Yes, Crank Brothers cleats are compatible with all SPD compatible SHOES, but Crank Brothers cleats are not compatible with SPD pedals, nor are SPD cleats compatible with Crank Brother pedals (what Deedub said, just not explicitly).
