Crankbrothers Cleat Kit Standard Release 6°
What Is It?
The Crankbrothers Cleat Kit Standard Release 6° is a replacement cleat system designed for Crankbrothers clipless pedal systems (such as Eggbeater, Candy, Mallet, and Double Shot pedals). It allows the rider’s shoe to clip in and out of the pedal and provides a 6-degree release angle, meaning the foot must rotate outward by 6° to disengage.
This is the most commonly used Crankbrothers cleat type, offering a balance of secure engagement and easy release.
