FAQs
Are these plates sold as a pair?
Yes, the shin plates are provided to cover both legs.
Will this fit older Sidi boot models?
No, these are specifically designed for the Crossair X series and are not guaranteed to fit legacy boots.
Can I paint these to match my bike?
We do not recommend painting the plates, as solvents in the paint may react with the polymer and cause structural weakness.
How do I know if the plate is damaged?
Look for spider-webbing cracks, deep gashes that penetrate the thickness of the plastic, or permanent warping.
Do I need special tools to replace them?
Typically, you will only need standard hex keys or screwdrivers consistent with your boot's mounting hardware.
Troubleshooting
Plate feels loose after installation
Check all mounting screws for tightness and ensure the plastic tabs are fully seated in their designated slots.
Difficulty aligning mounting holes
Loosen all surrounding fasteners slightly to allow the plate to shift into its natural seated position before tightening.
Surface grime won't come off
Use a soft-bristled brush with warm soapy water to gently dislodge dirt from the textured areas of the plate.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the Crossair X Shin Plate requires standard mechanical hand tools. Ensure the boot is clean and dry before attempting to align the plate with the mounting points. Tighten fasteners in an alternating pattern to ensure even pressure distribution, but avoid overtightening to prevent cracking the plastic. For care, wipe down with a mild soap and water solution after every ride; avoid harsh chemical cleaners or degreasers that may degrade the synthetic material. Inspect the plate periodically for deep gouges or stress fractures, and replace if the structural integrity appears compromised.
