FAQs
What type of pedals are these shoes compatible with?
These Pinnacle Radium Road Cycling Shoes are designed for road cycling and are compatible with standard 3-bolt road cleat systems (e.g., Look KEO, Shimano SPD-SL).
How do I clean my Pinnacle Radium cycling shoes?
To clean your shoes, simply use a soft damp cloth to wipe down the synthetic microfibre upper and the outsole. For dirtier areas, a mild soap solution can be applied. Allow them to air dry naturally afterwards.
Are these shoes suitable for long-distance cycling?
Yes, with their focus on everyday comfort and efficient power transfer, the Pinnacle Radium shoes are well-suited for long-distance training rides, commutes, and weekend adventures where sustained comfort is important.
What is the benefit of the Nylon outsole?
The Nylon outsole provides a good balance between efficient power transfer, ensuring your pedaling efforts are effective, and comfort, making the shoes suitable for various ride durations without causing undue foot fatigue.
Can I adjust the fit while I'm riding?
Yes, the Turn Lock system is designed for quick and precise micro-adjustments, allowing you to easily fine-tune the shoe's fit even while you are actively cycling.
Are these shoes good for hot weather?
Absolutely. The breathable synthetic microfibre upper and mesh tongue are specifically designed to promote airflow, helping to keep your feet cool and comfortable during intense or warm weather rides.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or loose during a ride
Utilize the Turn Lock and touch fastening strap system. The Turn Lock allows for precise micro-adjustments on the fly to achieve a customized and secure fit. Adjust it while riding if necessary to find your optimal comfort level.
Feet feel hot or sweaty
The shoes feature a breathable synthetic microfibre upper and mesh tongue. Ensure you are wearing appropriate cycling socks that are also breathable and moisture-wicking. If the issue persists, consider cleaning the shoes as dirt can hinder breathability.
Difficulty clipping into or out of pedals
While not directly a shoe issue, ensure your cleats are correctly installed and tightened. Apply a small amount of dry lubricant (like wax or PTFE spray) to your pedal's cleat mechanism. Practice clipping in and out in a safe environment until comfortable.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting Up Your Shoes
- Cleat Installation: The Pinnacle Radium Road Cycling Shoes are designed for road cycling and are generally compatible with standard 3-bolt road cleat systems (e.g., Look KEO, Shimano SPD-SL). Purchase the appropriate cleats for your pedals separately.
- Positioning: Attach the cleats to the sole using the provided hardware. Start with a neutral cleat position, typically centered under the ball of your foot. Adjust fore/aft, rotation, and side-to-side positioning as needed for optimal comfort and power transfer, using a cleat setup tool if available.
- Strap Adjustment: Once cleats are installed, put on the shoes. Use the Turn Lock system to tighten the main strap for a snug fit. The touch fastening strap allows for further fine-tuning across the forefoot.

- Riding Type: Best suited for road cycling activities, including training, commuting, and recreational rides.
Product Care
- Cleaning: To keep your shoes looking and performing their best, clean them regularly. Use a soft damp cloth to wipe down the synthetic microfibre upper and outsole. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used.
- Drying: After cleaning or riding in wet conditions, allow the shoes to air dry naturally. Avoid direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can damage materials.
- Storage: Store your cycling shoes in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prolong their lifespan.
