Struggling with new MTB pedals/cleats/shoes combo

[LazyTrailRider]

They advertise that the cleat is SPD compatible, so thats why it look like the Shamino cleat.

 

Ah, I think we may have tracked down your problem, maybe you're using cheap knock-off Shamino cleats instead of the real Shimano models?

Yip, silly of me to buy the cheep stuff. Ends up costing more in the long run....

Set the tension to the weakest until you get used to clipping in and out.

So I tried sanding a bit more of the treads away. This did not help.

 

Went back to the shop. Got a pair of Shamino PD-M520. Much better. Chalk and cheese.

 

In other words, the Ryder pedals are just really crap.

I have a set of those in the garage. I'm keeping them for when I need to throw something hard at someone.

 

Thought the same as you, best of both worlds, foot kept popping out at the worst of times and actually had a very hard bail in the parking lot at fratelli's because it would not release.

 

Absolute crap.
