FAQs
Are these shoes compatible with mountain bike pedals?
No, the Gaerne G.Sprint Plus is designed specifically for road-style, three-bolt clipless pedal systems.
Can I replace the BOA laces if they break?
Yes, the BOA L6 system is modular, and replacement kits are generally available from BOA or authorized service centers.
How do I determine my size?
Gaerne sizing is consistent with standard EU cycling shoe sizing. If you are between sizes, consider a slightly larger size to account for thicker cycling socks.
Are the walking inserts replaceable?
Yes, the non-slip walking inserts are replaceable, which helps prevent premature wear on the carbon-reinforced sole when walking to your bike.
Can I use custom orthotic insoles?
Yes, the anatomical EPS Transpirant insole is removable, allowing you to swap in custom orthotics if required.
Is the upper material waterproof?
The perforated microfiber is designed for breathability and is not waterproof. Use shoe covers if riding in wet conditions.
Troubleshooting
BOA dial feels loose or slips
Ensure no debris is caught in the dial mechanism and check that the lace is correctly seated in the guides.
Cleats feel loose while pedaling
Check that the mounting bolts are tightened to the pedal manufacturer's recommended torque specifications.
Hot spots or discomfort in the forefoot
Loosen the BOA dial slightly or re-adjust the cleat position to shift pressure away from sensitive metatarsal areas.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your shoes, align your preferred road cleats with the threaded inserts on the EPS Carbon Power Sole 8.0, utilizing the adjustable cleat positioning to match your biomechanical needs. The shoes are compatible with all major three-bolt road clipless pedal systems (e.g., Shimano SPD-SL, Look Keo). For care, wipe the microfiber upper clean with a damp cloth after rides; avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh detergents. If the walking inserts on the sole show significant wear, they can be removed and replaced to extend the life of the shoe.
