Apologies if this has been done before.
I have just purchased a set of SPD 959 pedals, and in the instructions
it states that you MUST only use SM-SH51 or SM-SH56 cleats. Now that's
a bit of a blow, as when I previously purchased a set of 858's (quite a
while back now), the instructions for those stated that you MUST use
SM-SH52 cleats. At that point I changed the cleats on all my shoes (4
pairs) to SM-SH52 cleats. When the time came to purchase another set of
pedals, to ensure that I didn't have to replace all the cleats again, I
decided to go for the 858's again, only to find them replaced by the
959s. I assumed (wrongly) that the 959s would use the same cleats.
The question is, has anyone tried SM-SH52 cleats with 959s? If so, any
problems? Conversely, anyone tried SM-SH51s with 858s?
I have several bikes with a range of SPD pedals dating back over 10
years. All of them seem fine with the SM-SH52 cleats, so I would like
to stick with them if possible.
Cheers,
Mark
