 Great alternative to SM-SH51 cleats Jun 28, 2011
By mike892
These multi-release cleats are now my primary cleats.
If you don't know, shimano makes two types of SPD cleats -- single release clips (the "normal" SM-SH51 SPD cleats) and these multi-release SM-SH56 cleats.
With both types of cleats you have to twist your feet to unclip, but the single-release cleats only allow a twist to the side. These cleats allow a few more angles of release.
I started out with the SM-SH51 single-release cleats, and fell off my bike a number of times over the course of two years in unusual situations. It is a horrible feeling to find yourself falling and be unable to unclip the whole way down. In one case, I would have been run over if there had been any traffic in the lane next to me.
When I found out about these cleats, I ordered them to try out.
I WILL NEVER GO BACK. These cleats release in multiple directions and it's like they read your mind. When you want to unclip, you can and do.
I have had ZERO false releases, and have had several intentional releases in difficult situations.

 Solid, Well-Priced Cleats - Instruction Caution Dec 19, 2011
By MG in NY
Not much to say, it's a basic but effective cleat. Only caveat is that the instructions warn against over tightening. This is actually pretty hard to do by hand and much more of a risk, in my experience, is under tightening. On my first use, they were pretty tight but not cranked down -- due to my caution after reading the instructions. In fact, this allowed them to move around slightly, loosening them even more and, finally, popping one off stuck in the pedal. It was salvageable but it did scratch up the bottom of my brand new shoes quite a bit and releasing the cleat from the pedal was a big pain. So, don't let the instructions fool you, they need to be really tight. It would be pretty difficult for an average size/strength person to over tighten using a hand wrench.

Must have cleats! Way better than the single direction release! Aug 30, 2011
By James
I got these after getting fed up with the single direction cleats that came with my Shimano pedals. I am a pretty aggressive rider and there has been way too many times where I clipped out of my pedals too late and barely saved myself from disaster because I could only clip out in one direction. These cleats are a lifesaver!

 Not for Me Dec 16, 2011
By David M.
There is no "problem" with these cleats, really- It's just that they release too frequently when I don't want them to. Especially, on hard acceleration from a stop. I've almost fallen because of it, so I switched back to the "51"s.
It sounded like a good idea to have easier multi-release, but for me, I am just not comfortable with them (coming from standard Shimano 51 cleats). I even cranked up my pedal release tension, but still no good. Maybe I twist my feet too much, but I'm happier with the regular cleats and have zero issues releasing from them.

Really nice set of cleats Oct 03, 2011
By Ravi
These are my primary cleats now..
I have tried SH51 which I had real big problems releasing my foot from the pedal..I ended up crashing 4 or 5 times...
Unlike those, these set of cleats are really good. They release pretty easily when you intend to.
But these do not get released unintentionally as mentioned in other reviews. You are still clipped to the pedal when you are hitting hard of elevations.
