Product Details

The CL-SL130 has been developed to make the switch to SPD-SLR pedals with road cycling shoes from other manufacturers (three-hole soles) significantly easier. Although they do not feature the extremely low profile or noticeable weight savings found in other SPD-SLR cleats, they do offer a significantly wider adjustment range – which is particularly useful for soles with a fixed mounting point.

The Shimano CL-SL130 cleats with 6° of freedom of movement are the highlight of the new SPD-SLR standard. SPD-SLR features a larger engagement area and a narrower clip-in angle of 10.5° compared to 15.5° on the SPD-SL. This allows riders to clip in more naturally and securely – when setting off from traffic lights, after corners or at the start of a sprint.

• Particularly low profile and no gap between the pedal and cleat for greater stability and better power transfer
• Extra-wide platform for maximum support
• New SPD-SLR interface for a seamless connection between shoe and pedal
• Unlike the central SPD-SLR cleats, the CL-SL130 does not offer the lower profile and weight advantages of the integrated SPD-SLR platform. However, it allows for a wider adjustment range with soles featuring a fixed mounting point
• Pedal Compatibility: DURA ACE: PD-R9300, ULTEGRA: PD-R8200
• Note: SPD-SLR cleats have been developed exclusively for SPD-SLR pedals and are not backwards compatible with SPD-SL pedals!

Anyone switching to SPD-SLR pedals will also need the appropriate SPD-SLR cleats. SPD-SL cleats are not compatible with the new SPD-SLR pedals. Shoes with a slotted mounting are compatible with both the old (SPD-SL) and the new (SPD-SLR) cleats and can be used with both the new and old pedals. The grey cleat (CL-SL130) is designed for switching from shoes with a three-hole mounting system to the new system. It offers additional adjustment range, but does not match the low profile and weight advantages of the integrated SPD-SLR cleats.
