Clipping into your pedals can be a challenge. Sometimes it is not you but the cleat, shoe, or pedal. If you have smaller feet this is more common on the Peloton bike or any bike with Look Delta pedals. It is not a defective cleat. It is most likely your shoes. But there may be something to do to the cleat to help.

@lilliecoltharp36753 years ago Thank you! This worked for me and im a size 38. I tried for hours to clip in with no success. All my friends told me it was tricky at first but to j id="hidden5"ust keep trying, but nothing was working. I could feel the cleat going in the pedal but it would immediately pop back out, never could get it to lock in. As soon as i removed the rubber piece, i clipped in first try, no problem! Glad to know it was the shoe and not me:. ...Expand 10

@schauviola83902 years ago Thank you soo much for this video
i just got my peloton today and it took me hours and nerves to try to click in! Everything i read in the in id="hidden15"ternet was more about the clicking out part, since the clicking in part should be so easy. I felt beyond stupid and started being frustrated. Long story short: its the small things that make a giant difference. I removed the black rubber and voila, click clack thanks a lot. ...Expand 2
