FAQs
What type of pedals are these shoes designed for?
These shoes are clipless cycling shoes designed for use with 2-bolt pedal systems, such as SPD, offering secure engagement and efficient power transfer.
Can I use these shoes with flat pedals?
Yes, the StickyFoot Grip pedal contact zones also provide good engagement with caged pedals, allowing for use with flat pedal systems that have cages.
How do I clean the shoes?
Clean the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Allow the shoes to air dry completely away from direct heat. The lining is designed to dry quickly.
What is the benefit of the offset cleat box?
The offset cleat box allows for a wider range of fore-aft adjustment for your cleat, helping you find a more comfortable and efficient pedaling stance.
Are these shoes waterproof?
While the shoes feature a quick-dry lining and are designed to manage moisture, they are not fully waterproof. They offer good performance in wet conditions but are not intended for submersion.
How do I adjust the fit of the shoes?
The fit is adjustable via a traditional lace closure system combined with a Velcro strap across the top of the foot for a secure and personalized fit.
What terrain are these shoes best suited for?
These shoes are engineered for progressive trail riding, excelling on technical terrain where both pedal efficiency and off-bike traction are important.
Troubleshooting
Cleat engagement is difficult.
Ensure cleats are clean and free of mud. Check pedal springs for tension. Verify cleat alignment within the shoe's adjustment range.
Foot feels unstable on the pedal.
Adjust cleat position further forward or backward. Ensure the Velcro strap is securely fastened. Check for debris in the pedal cage if using caged pedals.
Discomfort during long rides.
Re-evaluate cleat positioning for optimal foot alignment. Ensure the shoe is not overtightened with the laces or strap. Consider insoles for additional arch support if needed.
Poor traction when walking.
Ensure the StickyFoot Dura tread is clean. Be aware that aggressive off-road tread is designed for grip on uneven surfaces and may feel different on smooth, wet surfaces.
