Why You Should Replace Your Delta Cleats and Bolts Annually

If you're a regular Peloton rider, your cleats are your connection to the bike—literally. And just like your tires need changing or your sneakers wear out, Delta cleats and bolts need regular replacement to keep you riding safely and comfortably.

Here’s why making this part of your yearly routine is a smart move.

1. Worn Cleats = Unsafe Rides

Delta cleats wear down with every ride, especially if you walk around in them. Over time, they lose their grip, making it harder to clip in securely—and easier to accidentally clip out. That’s not just annoying during a sprint, it can also be dangerous.

Fresh cleats = confident, safe rides.

2. Loose or Rusty Bolts Can Wreck Your Setup

Bolts keep your cleats securely fastened to your shoes. But over months of sweat and motion, they can rust, strip, or loosen, which affects both comfort and safety.

Worn bolts can even make it feel like your cleats are constantly shifting, throwing off your form and adding strain to your knees or hips.

3. Better Performance, Less Distraction

When your cleats and bolts are in top condition, your pedal strokes feel smooth and efficient. You can focus on the ride—not on adjusting your foot mid-class or wondering why things feel “off.”

Small upgrade. Big difference.

4. Once a Year = Peace of Mind

Replacing your cleats and bolts annually is a quick and affordable fix that gives you one less thing to worry about.

Set a calendar reminder. Add it to your gear checklist. Just don’t skip it. Your future self (and knees) will thank you.
