FAQs
What type of pedals are these shoes compatible with?
These shoes are designed for clipless pedal systems using a standard 2-bolt cleat interface. The StickyFoot Grip zones also offer compatibility for riders using caged pedals.
Do the shoes come with cleats?
No, the shoes are typically sold separately from cleats and pedals. You will need to purchase compatible 2-bolt cleats and clipless pedals.
How do I clean and maintain the shoes?
Clean the outside with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Allow the interior to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing or harsh chemicals.
Are these shoes waterproof?
While the shoes feature a quick-dry lining, they are not fully waterproof. They are designed to manage moisture and dry quickly during use.
What is the main advantage of the StickyFoot materials?
StickyFoot Grip provides excellent, secure contact with pedals, while StickyFoot Dura offers durable, reliable traction for walking on varied terrain.
Can I use these shoes for road cycling?
These shoes are optimized for trail and off-road use. While they can be used for road cycling with the appropriate pedals, their tread pattern and sole stiffness are primarily designed for technical terrain.
How much adjustment is there for cleat placement?
The shoes feature an offset cleat box with an extended longitudinal adjustment range, allowing riders to fine-tune their stance for optimal pedaling efficiency and comfort.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty engaging/disengaging from pedals
Ensure cleats are clean and properly aligned. Check pedal tension if adjustable. If using new cleats or pedals, allow a brief break-in period.
Foot feels unstable on pedals
Tighten the laces and Velcro strap for a more secure fit. Adjust cleat position for better foot alignment over the pedal spindle.
Shoes feel stiff or uncomfortable on longer rides
Ensure correct cleat placement. Allow for a break-in period of a few rides. Check that the laces are not overtightened, which can restrict circulation.
Poor grip when walking
Ensure the StickyFoot Dura tread areas are free from mud or debris. The tread pattern is designed for reliable traction, but excessive mud can reduce effectiveness.
