Most commuter shoes use 2-bolt SPD cleats, while Peloton and many spin bikes use LOOK Delta (3-bolt) pedals. They are not directly compatible. However, some spin bikes have dual-sided pedals with SPD on one side. If your spin studio uses SPD-compatible pedals, commuter shoes work fine. Otherwise, you would need a dedicated 3-bolt spin shoe or swap your bike's pedals.
