I just bought an X3 connect bike. And I want to use bike shoes with cleats and purchased one pair. The cleats are SPD but it doesn't click on the pedal. I don't know what I am doing wrong. Does anyone have any tips? I am attaching the photo s also.

Thank you in advance kind strangers.

Welcome to the forum @Newbie_2020! If your cleats are SPD you might need to get these SPD compatible pedals.

Thank you!

No problem! how long have you had your X3?

@York I have the same issue - I purchased those spd pedals but it looks like SPD connection is backwards on the pedal. By this I mean I can only clip in the shoes if they are pointed backwards. What the heck am I doing wrong? it seems like the connector is installed backwards in the pedal.

thanks!

@rudicus, hopefully you were able to figure it out 3 weeks into posting about the issue.
If not, let us know.
