FAQs
Are these straps sold as a pair?
Yes, the Cinelli Mike Giant Straps come as a complete pair for both the left and right pedals.
Can I use these with standard flat pedals?
They are compatible with most platform pedals that include dedicated slots for strap installation.
Do I need special cycling shoes to use these?
No, the straps are highly adjustable and work with most flat-soled sneakers and casual shoes.
How do I clean the straps?
Hand wash with mild soap and water, then allow them to air dry completely.
Will the artwork fade over time?
While the high-quality construction is meant to last, prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight and heavy friction may cause minor aesthetic wear to the print.
Can these be used for track racing?
These are primarily designed for urban commuting and fixed-gear street riding; check your local velodrome rules regarding foot retention systems.
Troubleshooting
Straps feel loose during the ride
Check that the triple-band velcro is fully engaged and pull the adjustment tab tighter before your next ride.
Foot is difficult to insert
Ensure the aluminum buckle is correctly angled; if it has shifted, re-thread the strap through the pedal slots to reset the buckle's resting position.
Velcro is losing its grip
Use a stiff-bristled brush to remove lint, dirt, or debris from the hooks and loops of the velcro surface.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High-quality, durable nylon construction
- Iconic artistic aesthetic by Mike Giant
- Easy foot entry thanks to angled buckles
- Highly adjustable to fit various pedal and shoe types
- Secure triple-band velcro locking mechanism
Cons
- Requires periodic tightening for maximum security

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward: thread the straps through your platform pedal slots, ensuring the aluminum buckles face outward for easy access. Before your first ride, adjust the velcro overlap to match your preferred footwear thickness.
Compatibility: These straps are designed for use with most platform-style pedals that feature slots for strap webbing. They are not intended for use with clipless pedal systems.
Care: To maintain the integrity of the velcro, keep the straps free of excessive mud and grit. If the straps become dirty, wash them by hand using mild soap and water, then let them air dry completely. Avoid using a machine dryer, as the heat may warp the nylon or weaken the velcro adhesive.
