Shimano SM-SH56 SPD Multi-Release Cleat w/o Cleat Nut
What Is the Shimano SM-SH56 SPD Multi-Release Cleat Without Cleat Nut?
The Shimano SM-SH56 without cleat nut is the SPD multi-release cleat for shoes that already have captive nut inserts installed in the sole, allowing exit from the pedal in lateral, upward, or diagonal directions rather than requiring a specific heel-out twist. Multi-release is the preferred choice for beginners, trail MTB riders, and commuters who need to get a foot down quickly in unpredictable situations -- the multi-directional release significantly reduces tip-over risk compared to single-release SM-SH51 cleats. The no-nut version is a clean, straightforward swap when replacing worn cleats on shoes with existing captive hardware in the mounting slots.
Compatible with all Shimano SPD two-bolt cleat pedals. Sold as a single cleat without nut. For SPD-compatible shoes with existing captive cleat nut inserts.
