The Shimano GE700 Cycling Shoes are designed for adult, unisex mountain bikers, particularly those focused on downhill and enduro riding, offering enhanced bike control and competitive performance. The key benefit is superior traction and stability on varied terrains, though the specialized design may require a brief adjustment period for optimal comfort. These shoes feature an innovative TORBAL 2.0 midsole for flexibility, ULTREAD GE rubber for grip, an expanded Pedal Channel for SPD stability, and a secure skate-style upper with an instep strap.

While they offer good walking traction, their design is optimized for aggressive mountain biking disciplines like downhill and enduro. For everyday commuting, shoes with more flexibility and less aggressive tread might be more comfortable.
The TORBAL 2.0 midsole enhances outer edge flexibility, allowing for more natural foot movement and improved control during aggressive riding, especially when cornering or descending.
After removing loose dirt, use a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Rinse with clean water and allow to air dry completely. Avoid high-pressure washing.
No, the Shimano GE700 shoes are designed specifically for SPD (clipless) pedal systems. They have a cleat interface on the sole and will not provide adequate grip or a stable platform for flat pedals.
The shoes weigh approximately 417g for a size 42.
The stiffness rating is 6. This indicates a moderate-to-high level of stiffness, designed to provide efficient power transfer from the rider to the pedals, suitable for performance-oriented cycling.
Typically, shoes are sold separately from cleats and pedals. Please check the product packaging or listing to confirm if cleats are included; usually, they are not.
Ensure the cleat area on the shoe is clean and free of debris. Check that your SPD cleats are correctly installed and aligned on the shoes. Sometimes, new shoes may require a brief break-in period for the cleat interface to fully seat.
Adjust the lacing to ensure even pressure distribution. Try different lacing patterns or ensure the instep strap is not overtightened. Consider the fit with your cycling socks; thicker socks may require loosening the laces.
Ensure the ULTREAD GE rubber tread is clean. Minor wear is normal, but heavy mud or debris can impede traction. If significant wear is present, consider if cleats are excessively engaging the ground.
These shoes have a stiffness rating of 6, designed for power transfer. While the TORBAL 2.0 midsole offers some flexibility, they are inherently stiffer than casual shoes. Some break-in time is expected, and the flexibility will increase slightly with use.
Setup: These shoes are designed for use with SPD (Shimano Pedalling Dynamics) clipless pedal systems. Ensure your pedals are compatible. The laces and instep strap allow for a customized fit; lace them snugly but not restrictively, and secure the strap firmly.
Compatibility: Compatible with all SPD pedals. For optimal performance, consider pairing with Shimano SPD pedals.
Care: Clean the shoes after each use with a damp cloth to remove mud and debris. For deeper cleaning, remove the insoles and wash them separately. Allow the shoes to air dry completely away from direct heat sources. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the synthetic leather and rubber components. Store in a cool, dry place when not in use.
