Product Details
The SRM X-Power Direct Cleats represent the critical interface component in the revolutionary shoe-pedal system developed collaboratively by SRM and Q36.5. Engineered to work exclusively with Q36.5 Unique Pro shoes and SRM X-Power Direct pedals, these cleats enable the unprecedented 11.9mm total stack height that fundamentally transforms power transfer efficiency and rider positioning.
Constructed from durable PA612 with 20% glass fiber reinforcement, the cleats feature an innovative design that repositions the positive retention element behind the direct contact point between shoe and pedal. This breakthrough engineering allows the cleat to contribute to the massive 1,653mm² contact surface area while minimizing the distance between foot and pedal axle. The result is reduced shear forces, enhanced stability, and more direct power transfer with every pedal stroke.
The cleats feature integrated rubber walk surfaces that provide practical off-bike traction and durability, addressing the walkability concerns common with traditional road cleats. Available in three float options; 0°, ±1.2°, and ±3° play, riders can customize rotational freedom to match personal preference and biomechanical needs. The repositioned cleat design requires four mounting holes in the shoe sole, a configuration currently exclusive to Q36.5's Unique Pro shoes.
When integrated into the complete SRM X-Power Direct system, these cleats deliver the measurable performance advantages professional riders have reported: higher cadence capability under load, increased power output, improved seating position, and enhanced aerodynamic positioning with lowered center of gravity.
