![]() We’re not going to rebut that official advice, but we’d add that you need to keep an eye on the springs and replace them if they show signs of wear. This applies to cleats for the current Speedplay models Nano, Zero, Comp and Aero (all based on the old Zero) and the old Light Action and X pedals. Speedplay (now owned by Wahoo) says, “Replace cleats at least every 3,000-5,000 miles or sooner if the cleat parts show advanced wear.” Time doesn’t make cleat covers and we haven't been able to find anyone else who does either. "The best way to know when your cleats should be replaced is when you start to have play between the sole of your shoe and the pedal." "Depending on how heavily they are used could mean that the same set could need to be replaced every six months with one rider and every year with another. "There are many factors involved such as the number of miles ridden each year, type of terrain ridden on and how often the shoes are used to walk in. "It is difficult to identify a hard and fast rule to determine how often cleats should be replaced," said Time. It must be said that Time’s road pedal cleats have a bit of a reputation for wearing out quickly if you walk any more than an absolute minimum in them. Sets of Time iClic (above) cleats each have an RRP of £18.99 for the floating version and £23.99 for fixed.
