FAQs
Are these shoes compatible with SPD cleats?
Yes, the Coffee Grinder is designed for standard two-bolt mountain bike cleat systems like Shimano SPD.
Can I replace the closure system if it breaks?
Yes, the dial closure components on Sidi shoes are modular and can typically be replaced if damaged.
Are these shoes suitable for road cycling?
While they can be used on road bikes, they are specifically optimized for gravel and off-road, which includes a slightly more flexible sole than pure race shoes.
How do I clean the suede material effectively?
Brush off loose dirt while dry. For tougher stains, use a dedicated suede cleaner and a soft-bristle brush, then allow it to air dry.
Is the heel counter heat-moldable?
No, the heel counter is a fixed, reinforced structure and should not be heated or modified.
What is the primary benefit of the Firmor technology?
It provides superior lateral support, which prevents foot roll and improves power efficiency during pedaling.
Troubleshooting
Dial tension feels uneven or slips
Check the dial mechanism for trapped debris and ensure the Dyneema cable is routed correctly through the guides.
Sole grip is worn down
Remove the mounting screws and replace the rubber inserts with a new pair compatible with the Coffee Grinder model.
Suede looks discolored after cleaning
Use a specialized suede-safe brush to 'revive' the nap of the material once it is completely dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure peak performance, follow these guidelines:
- Cleat Installation: Align your two-bolt mountain bike cleats on the sole, ensuring the bolts are tightened to the manufacturer's torque specifications.
- Dial Adjustment: Turn the dial clockwise to tighten; to release, pull the dial mechanism upward to allow the cable to slacken.
- Suede Maintenance: Avoid using harsh chemicals. Use a soft-bristled brush to remove dried mud after every ride. If the suede gets wet, air dry it naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent the material from hardening.
- Sole Care: Periodically inspect the replaceable rubber inserts and replace them if you notice significant loss of tread depth or grip.
