Review on Optimized Kool Kovers for Speedplay X Series Cleats by Jimmie Gebrehiwot

Revainrating 3 out of 5

They work but come off too easily.

You need to press in two places according to the attached diagram and you can feel the locking on the spike wires, unlike the Speedplay version which conforms to the shape on the outside of the spike. . But they go immediately, even indoors, not to mention a park or pond, walking on the grass. It's brand new, don't know what they will do after a while. They're softer than speedplay covers, so that's good, but I'll be damned if I can get them to stay more than 3 stages. Other brands work better when new, but they also fail immediately after a few months. Too bad because they would be good for a gravel road by a rest area and the like, but you have to keep looking back to see where it went off.

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • Frequency
