FAQs
Are these shoes compatible with road bike pedals?
No, the SILVIS XC is designed for mountain bike (SPD-style) cleat systems.
Can I replace the Dyneema cables?
The cables are highly durable, but they are designed to be part of the secure fit system; consult a local Sidi dealer for maintenance.
How do I determine my size?
The shoes are sized in UK measurements. We recommend referring to a standard sizing chart or checking your previous Sidi fit.
Is the sole compatible with walking?
While the sole offers grip for off-bike hike-a-bike sections, it is primarily optimized for cycling performance.
Are these shoes waterproof?
The TPU construction is highly protective against dirt and water spray, but they are not fully waterproof or submersible.
How do I clean the white sections?
Use a mild soap solution and a soft cloth to gently scrub the TPU surface; avoid abrasive scrubbers.
Troubleshooting
Dial system feels loose or slips
Ensure no dirt or grit is trapped in the dial mechanism; clean with compressed air or a soft brush.
Pressure points on the top of the foot
Adjust the anatomical tongue position and ensure the Dyneema cables are not bunched under the dial.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High-durability TPU materials prevent premature wear from trail debris.
- Efficient power transfer due to the carbon composite sole.
- Secure and precise fit adjustment via the dial system.
- Enhanced visibility through reflective detailing.
- Anatomical design reduces discomfort on long rides.
Cons
- Stiffness rating of 7 may feel too rigid for casual riders preferring flex.
- Requires specific off-road cleat compatibility.
- Limited to specific sizing options in the SILVIS XC series.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, install your mountain bike-specific cleats securely to the base. When adjusting the fit, use the dial system to distribute tension evenly across the instep. For daily maintenance, wipe the TPU upper with a damp cloth after each ride to prevent dirt accumulation. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents, as these can degrade the cable system. If the shoes become soaked during a muddy ride, remove the insoles and air dry them in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources, which could warp the carbon sole material.
