Hi folks I'm using Shimano M540 SPD's and my shoes are by Specialized but they're old so I can't remember the model. They're comfortable though so no problems there. Wher I am having problems is when it comes to releasing my feet quickly. It's not a problem when I decide to stop myself but there's been a couple of occasions recently where Pedestrians have forced me to put a foot down in a hurry, with varying degrees of success.
My cleats are Shimano SM-SH51's which came with the shoes. Now I've heard that there's a newer cleat called the SH56. Apparently they're multi-release and should make getting my foot down just that bit easier. I assume cleats wear out over time anyway so if it's time to replace them perhaps the multi-release version might be the ones to go for.
Can anyone vouch for them and tell if there really is a difference between these & the ones I already have?
Thanks for taking the time to read this.
