FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for road cycling?
No, the Shimano GE700 shoes are designed specifically for off-road trail riding and feature an SPD cleat system suitable for mountain biking pedals. They are not optimized for road cycling.
Can I use these shoes with flat pedals?
These shoes are designed for SPD clipless pedal systems. They require compatible cleats to be installed and will not function with flat pedals.
How do I choose the correct size?
It is recommended to consult the Shimano sizing chart. For the best fit, try the shoes on in person if possible, as sizing can vary between brands and individuals.
What type of riding are these shoes best for?
The GE700 shoes are ideal for trail riding, enduro, and all-mountain cycling, offering a balance of pedaling efficiency, durability, and protection.
How durable are the soles?
The soles are constructed with durable materials designed to withstand trail abuse and provide reliable grip, but like all components, they will experience wear over time with extensive use.
Can the cleats be adjusted?
Yes, the cleat mounting area on the shoes allows for a degree of fore/aft and rotational adjustment to fine-tune your pedaling position.
Troubleshooting
Cleats not engaging with pedals
Ensure cleats are correctly installed and aligned on the shoes. Check pedal body for debris and ensure the cleat retention mechanism is functioning.
Discomfort or hot spots during ride
Adjust cleat position for better alignment. Ensure laces are snug but not overly tight. Consider using aftermarket insoles for a more personalized fit.
Poor grip when walking
Clean mud and debris from the outsole tread. Ensure the shoe is suitable for the terrain; these are trail shoes, not hiking boots.
Shoes feel stiff
New shoes often require a break-in period. Wear them for shorter rides initially and gradually increase ride duration as they become more comfortable.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: The GE700 shoes are designed for use with SPD (Shimano Pedaling Dynamics) clipless pedal systems. Ensure your pedals are compatible. You will need to install compatible cleats (usually sold separately or with pedals) onto the shoe's sole in the designated recessed area. Adjust the cleat position for optimal pedaling comfort and efficiency.
Compatibility: These shoes are specifically designed for SPD clipless pedal systems. They are not compatible with three-hole road cleat systems or flat pedals without cleats.
Care: To clean your GE700 shoes, use a damp cloth to wipe away dirt and mud. For tougher grime, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by rinsing with clean water. Allow shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Avoid machine washing or using harsh chemicals, as this can damage the materials. Regularly check the sole for wear and tear, and ensure cleats are securely fastened.
