FAQs

Are these shoes compatible with SPD-SL cleats?

Yes, the R3CC carbon composite outsole is compatible with standard three-hole road cleat systems like SPD-SL.

Can I replace the dials if they break?

Yes, the GENIUS X WYVE features replaceable dials, allowing you to easily swap them out should they become damaged.

How do I determine my size?

This model is sized in UK measurements. We recommend measuring your foot length and comparing it to the Sidi size chart to ensure the correct fit.

Is the sole stiff enough for racing?

With a stiffness index of 6, it provides a great balance for competitive club riding and endurance events, though professional-grade pure racing shoes may offer even higher stiffness ratings.

How do I clean the mesh upper?

Gently scrub with a soft-bristled brush and lukewarm water. Avoid the washing machine as it can damage the TPU structures and adhesives.

Troubleshooting

Dial tension feels inconsistent

Ensure no debris is caught in the dial mechanism and check that the lace cable is not twisted inside the housing.

Foot numbness or discomfort

Loosen the dials slightly to allow for natural foot swelling and verify that your cleat position is centered under the ball of your foot.

Heel slippage

Tighten the top aluminum dial to secure the heel cup firmly against the back of your foot.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Proper setup is essential to maximize the benefits of the GENIUS X WYVE.

  1. Cleat Installation: Use the independent cleat adjustment tracks on the outsole to align your pedals. Ensure bolts are torqued to the manufacturer's specifications.
  2. Dial Maintenance: Keep the aluminum dials free of grit and mud; a quick wipe with a dry cloth after rides is usually sufficient.
  3. Cleaning: Use a soft brush to remove dirt from the mesh upper. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging the shoes in water or using harsh chemical cleaners that could damage the TPU.
  4. Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the mesh and TPU components.
