FAQs
What is the stiffness index of the SHOT 3 outsole?
The R1FC carbon outsole with Nexus Bridge has a stiffness index of 12, indicating maximum stiffness and power transfer.
Can I replace the closure dials?
Yes, the NUUN 001C aluminum dials are designed to be replaceable for maintenance and longevity.
How do I adjust the heel fit?
The heel counter is tool-free adjustable and can be customized for a secure fit. It is also removable.
Are these shoes suitable for all types of cycling?
The SHOT 3 is primarily designed for road cycling, offering maximum stiffness and power transfer. While durable, they are not optimized for mountain biking or cyclocross.
What material is the upper made of?
The upper is constructed from a Monocoque microfiber with internal mesh for breathability and a supportive fit.
How do I clean the microfiber upper?
Use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals and do not machine wash or tumble dry. Allow to air dry.
What is the benefit of the UNUM Ergo anatomical tongue?
The anatomical tongue is designed to reduce pressure on the instep, contributing to greater comfort during prolonged cycling efforts.
Troubleshooting
Dials are difficult to turn or release
Ensure the cables are clean and free of debris. A small amount of silicone lubricant can be applied to the dial mechanism if needed. Check that the laces are not twisted.
Hot spots or pressure points on the instep
Loosen the upper dial slightly. Ensure the UNUM Ergo anatomical tongue is positioned correctly and not bunched up. Consider adjusting the heel counter for a better overall foot hold.
Heel slipping during intense efforts
Utilize the tool-free adjustable heel counter to tighten the fit around the ankle. Ensure the Memory Fit footbed with silicone grip is properly seated.
Microfiber upper seems stiff
The microfiber material is designed to be supportive. Wear the shoes for a few shorter rides to allow them to break in and conform to your foot shape. Ensure the closure system is adjusted correctly, not overtightened.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Cleat Installation: Mount your cleats (not included) to the outsole according to your preferred pedal system. The outsole offers independent adjustment for personalized positioning.

- Heel Adjustment: If needed, adjust the tool-free adjustable heel counter for a customized fit.
Compatibility:
- Compatible with most road cycling pedal systems that utilize standard cleat mounts.
Care:
- Cleaning: Clean the microfiber upper with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Drying: Allow shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
- Maintenance: Periodically check the dials and heel counter for debris. Replace heel pads and dials as needed using the provided spare parts or official replacements.
