Limited Warranty

SILCA LIMITED WARRANTY 

Parts covered by SILCA Limited Warranty are considered to be subject to wear through normal use or are consumable subject to degradation through the course of their daily use.  SILCA guarantees them free from manufacturer defects for 2 years.

    Traditionally, mountain cleats have only had two material options. Mild steel and brass. This has largely been to ensure that the cleat wore out faster than the pedal interface, but has left us with cleats that are often times very fast wearing, and in all cases, are quite heavy.
    Now we couldn't just stop there, but by combining 3D printing technology with this material that is 1/3 lighter than steel, we are able to achieve a cleat with internal lattice structure (called a gyroid) which maintains stiffness and strength while reducing weight to create a cleat set that is HALF the weight of a standard cleat set.
    This savings of 25-30 grams per set of cleats is significant over time, particularly in CX events where running is crucial.
    25gm reduction x 100 rpm = 180kg of mass not lifted per hour of riding, 90kg per leg!

    NOTE:  Packaging indicates 6Nm max torque, but further testing has shown that torque up to 10Nm is acceptable and may be necessary on very hard carbon fiber soles.  Please grease threads and under the screw head at assembly to ensure consistent screw tension for a given torque.  Also, with harder soles, we recommend re-tightening the cleats after 24 hours or your first ride as screw tension may be reduced by the cleat pins impinging into the shoe sole.

      Pretty good cleats

      I bought a pair of these (Crank Brothers) when they first came out and installed them on a pair Specialized Recon 3. As others have mentioned the screws are too long and protrude into the shoe a small amount. I fixed that by using the screws from the stock cleats.

      The titanium alloy in these cleats doesn't move the same as the brass in the stock cleats, but it's not bad. If anything it's better.

      I bought a second pair of cleats for a pair of Chrome Kursk AW shoes. Those clears were different than my first pair, they didn't engage or disengage the same and generally felt a little different.

      It took me a long time to realize both sets of cleats were different heights, that it wasn't just a difference in shoe soles. I have two pair of cleats and rotated them around 3 pair of shoes, the third being a pair of (PEdALED branded) Fizik Terra.

      Just a moment ago I reached for a caliper after finally noticing the difference in the cleats and sure enough, they are different heights. I have no idea which are the new ones or the old ones.

      On a positive note, they last a very long time. I can't tell the old from the new cleats based on wear.

      I plan to keep using these and even buy more.

      This is my second set and the not the last!

      This is the best cleats period.

      Good Cleat

      The Titanium cleat for Crank Brothers works well. Install and forget, with weight lower than the original brass ones by 13 grams for the set.

      The only complaint is the Ti Hardware was actually non-functional for my installation since I needed the shorter bolts than the ones provided by Silca, and Silca currently does not produce the shorter bolts. The Crank Brothers cleats came with two sets of two different lengths. Perhaps with next round of production, Silca can have customers choose the correct bolts. Otherwise, the Ti bolts are just decorative in my tool box. (and advertising enticement but non functional)
