After seeing a number of videos, this is the most straightforward, crystal clear.
Dear teacher,
I'm having a little trouble understanding why this video is still online uncorrected. Not everyone reads all the comments BEFORE viewing. Anyone who torques those screws to 12-15 as you recommend will break something. I got lucky it was only the screws. Still have to go and buy another set.
Shimano recommends 5-6. That means you can safely go to 7 or 8 but certainly not to 12. I can only dread what would happen if one tries 15.
Please remove this video or replace it.
Thank you.
A fellow rider.
I think the instructions said 5-6nM but that feels too low. Exactly how you described, after riding today my cleat got stuck in the pedal as I was twisting out.
Thanks for the video! Think I'm going to tighten more.
Glad it helped
Been mounting biking for three years, but decide it was time to make the switch. Cheers for this video It was super helpful
Awesome, your welcome ⚙️🏁
Excellent video. Very easy to follow. Everything totally expained, including some handy little tips. Thank you, Bike Teacher
*Works great for our needs.*
Thank you so damn much for this
You’re so welcome! I’m glad you found the video. That’s an old one. lol.
Torque measure for this cleats usually is 4,0 to max. 4,5 Nm. depending on the type of shoe sole
Ya, some some I feel need more because the cleats need to bite into the shoe for added grip.
Well done! Thanks
Thanks
Helped alot ty
The max torque is 5 - 6 Nm
Okay, thanks. I may have been over tightening them in the past. The reason being I had one incident where I fell over due to the cleat twisting on the shoe. Never again.
@@BikeTeacher 6 Nm is pretty tight for such small screws and plastic, carbon or rubber shoe soles. My new Northwave shoes recommended max 6 Nm and the Shimano SPD cleats instructions said 5 - 6 Nm.
Hello, love your shoes , which models of Recon is it ? tx
Thank you!!
Would you do the same with carbon sole shoes? The serrated edge would damage the carbon?
I believe it will be fine. The manufactures who use carbon in theses instances have done their research. Otherwise they would not recommend it, I hope. You will see carbon as a contact point for areas like wheels contacting the frame at the drop outs in some cases and headsets. The forks that are 100% carbon are designed to hade the lower headset bearing sit directly on the forks crown race. As you know the fork has to handle a lot of weight and abuse. Thanks!
@@BikeTeacher I have used Crank Brothers shoe shields underneath the clear.
Mine doesnt have the 4 holes plate thing
Just got some xc3 shoes and it says the torque setting should be around 5/6 nm
I would try the 6nm and got from there. Test them in the pedal while you are balancing in between a doorway for safety. You wan to make sure the cleat will not migrate or twist leaving you stranded. Always recheck torque after a few rides.
Why allway forward ?
That’s my default starting position. You can work from there if you have issues. The ball of the foot tends to be the center where power of generated.
Why don't they include the tool???
They probably don’t want to spend the money. Places like IKEA do include the tool.
It went together easily in less than an hour. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L Make sure the front fork is forward or the pedals will hit the front tire. Tires are both a little soft so it needs air before I ride it. The rear wheel didn't come with a clamp regular bolts hold it on. The front had the clamp. No scratches out of box. Rims are a little off with a slight wobble. They could have spent more time with the spoke tool fixing the run out. So far out of the box I'm happy with it. I did replace the pedals with a nice aftermarket set. After riding it a bit my A$$ is a bit sore so I ordered another seat. Overall I'm nearly 60 and didn't ride a bike in 30 years. I like my new 29" Schwinn. It will be used for casual rides with my friend.
What bike?
