FAQs
Are these shoes compatible with SPD mountain bike pedals?
No, these shoes are designed specifically for 3-bolt road pedal systems and are not compatible with 2-bolt SPD style cleats.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert aftermarket orthotics or your preferred cycling insoles for better arch support.
How should I clean the shoes?
Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. Avoid using harsh detergents or putting them in a washing machine.
Are these suitable for indoor cycling trainers?
Yes, as long as your indoor bike is equipped with 3-bolt road pedals (such as Look Keo or Shimano SPD-SL), these are an excellent choice for indoor training.
Will the reflective elements wear off?
With proper care, the reflective elements are designed to be durable, though heavy scrubbing or abrasive cleaners may degrade them over time.
Troubleshooting
Cleat bolts coming loose
Apply a small amount of medium-strength threadlocker to the cleat bolts and ensure they are tightened to the specified torque.
Fastening system feels stiff
Check the turn-lock mechanism for grit or road debris; use a small brush to gently clear the mechanism and ensure it moves freely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For setup, ensure you install your 3-bolt cleats using the appropriate torque settings recommended by the pedal manufacturer to avoid damaging the composite sole. Proper cleat positioning is essential; align the cleats so that the ball of your foot sits directly over the pedal spindle to prevent knee pain. For care, keep the shoes in peak condition by wiping them down with a soft, damp cloth after every ride to remove mud and grit. Do not machine wash or submerge the shoes. If they get soaked in a downpour, remove the insoles and stuff the shoes with newspaper to air-dry them in a cool, shaded area away from direct heat sources like radiators, which can warp the synthetic materials.
