Shimano SPD-SL SM11 Cleats Yellow 6°

The yellow SPD-SL cleats are the most popular among casual riders. They are nevertheless used by a large number of athletes and sportsmen. The characteristics of the yellow cleats are the wide rotation range of the cleat of 6°, or 3° from the centre in each direction. This wide rotation range allows for a greater freedom of movement and therefore less stress on the joints than the other cleats from Shimano. The pivot point of the yellow cleat lies in the middle, so that your foot tip can rotate at the widest possible angle while cycling. Another advantage of this wide angle is that mistakes when adjusting the cleats are less severe and therefore more beginner-friendly. So if you are new to cycling, suffer from knee pain, have little mobility in your leg or simply don't know how to get started with clipless cycling, the yellow cleats from Shimano are your best choice.

The cleats are attached to your shoe with 3 screws and washers. The cleat is only compatible with shoes of the 3-hole system. An indicator under your shoe usually helps you to adjust the cleat for the first time.
