What's there to say about replacement heel pads?

I have a pair of Genius 5 shoes that I've had for what must be almost 10 years! They're in great condition so I'm not willing to replace them just yet which says something about the quality of Sidi shoes!
So, I had to replace the heels which had worn out and looking at Competitive Cyclist, I found some replacement heels, though in the spec, it didn't list (or I couldn't find!) my model listed, only the more recent Sidi ones. (They probably don't think anyone still has such an old shoe!)
I took a gamble and ordered a pair and they appeared very quickly, so I couldn't wait to get them fitted. What I found was that although they are the same shape as the old ones, the new ones have a plastic locating pin as well as the screw to hold it in place. My Genius 5's only have the screw, so they wouldn't fit! That was easily solved by cutting off the plastic pin with some wire cutters, the heel now fitted perfectly and my shoes are like new again!

Heel cups are easy to install. The screw tends to loosen quickly; check often! Also, the rubber on these cups wears out quickly and the cups need to be replaced often.

Competitive cyclist has a great price on these. Did the trick and easy to install.

The rubber on these caps wear out quickly. Additionally, the tiny screw that is used to attach the caps to the shoes can be worn down quickly and if so, you're in a world of hurt unscrewing it! Pay attention to the wear of that screw and replace these heel caps often!

These fit my older shoes and gave them new life. Shoes are about 5 years old and have a few years left in them thanks to new heel pads.
Jim CorriereHeel cup replacements

- Fit: True to size
Easy to install heel cups on the back of Sidi shoes. My only concern is that the tiny screw that is used to attach the cups to the shoes wears down quicker than the rubber cup. If one doesn't notice the screw worn down then one will have to have the screw taken out cautiously so as to not strip the hole where the screw is goes into.
danielI have sidi Carbon wires. Which heel cup do I need? Thank you.
Jim CorrierePurchase Sidi heel cups. All Sidi carbon shoes will accept these heel cups. The cups come with two small tips that may or may not fit into shoe. If your shoe doesn't need the two tips then you can easily twist them off. Continue to watch for the screw that attaches the cup to the shoes. If the screw head is worn down then you will have to manipulate it out. Don't pull the screw out as that will strip the bore hole where the screw needs to be put in.

Just knowing this critical wear part is replaceable made it a no brainer to buy a pair of wire mesh shoes. I wore through the fixed heel pads in less than 3 months and don't walk around that much when doing my centuries.
Ed KilbournGive 'em a makeover!
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Every time I replace my heel pads on my Wire's, it puts a smile on my face, knowing that the shoes will feel almost new afterwards (walking around anyways) and I'm protecting the vulnerable carbon sole.
So nice that they are replaceable at all, that fact definitely extends the overall life of the shoes.

Took advantage of a CC sale to lay in what is an annual consumable! At the price, it was easy to justify replacing the two most worn heel pads among my 3 pairs of Sidi road shoes, perhaps a little "early".

Don't wait until its to late
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
If you have a set of sidi's with the Millenium 3 sole get a set of these now and check your shoes regularly. I waited until it was obvious to order. by the time I replaced mine I had to carve the old ones apart with a knife to get to the screw with a set of pliers as the phillips head of the screw was damaged beyond use.
Being replaceable they will keep your shoes usefull for a long time.
Rich W.Are the heal pads you currently have in...
Are the heal pads you currently have in stock considered "universal"? My shoe are over 7 years old so I would just cut off the nubs which is fine.
Sarah LThese are not meant to be universal as they are for certain sole specifics. It is up to you if you would like to try to make them work on an older shoe, but they are not designed to fit every SIDI shoe in their line.
Let us know if you have any additional questions!
Cheers,
Sarah
KatI need the heel replacement pads for older...
I need the heel replacement pads for older Genius 5 shoes that are rounded at the top in the gray section (no notch). Do you have these? If not, do you know where I can get them? Thanks!
Mike NelsonGearheadHi Kat,
Unfortunately, we're no longer carrying the old-style heel pads. Before your request, we had not had an order for those pads in several months.
Sheldon TI have put these on my Genius 5 shoes. Just cut the small nubs off the bottom and you are good to go. Minor differences in shape do not affect function. See photos attached.
Jim CorriereHeel cap covers
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
These heel cap covers for the Sidi Bicycling Shoes are so important to have on the shoes. Surprisingly, these heel caps wear quickly and if not changed when needed, the little screw that is used to attach the rubber heel cap to the shoe will be rubbed down and will become quite difficult to remove. The use of full heel cap covers makes for an easier walk when wearing bicycling shoes and they also offer more support for one's feet.
Danny D.Hi Can you let me know what heel pads will...
Hi Can you let me know what heel pads will suit the Sidi Ergo 2 carbon soles
Jim CorriereSo sorry that I did not see your question until now! The standard heel pads that are sold by Sidi will work for your shoes. Sidi sells two kinds of heel pads, one with two points on the pad that fits into corresponding holes on the shoe and heel pads that do not have the two points. Check your shoe to see if you have tiny holes in them where the heel pad is attached and then decide for yourself!
PhilSorry, re: replacement heel pad - my Sidi's...
Sorry, re: replacement heel pad - my Sidi's are Genius 5 Pro Carb, not "Genesis". There is a rivet in the back of the sole, so I'm assuming I need the Millenium 3. The pictures of the products in you calendar are not clear enough to confirm which one is notched out.
Phil
Timothy Blummill 3 is notched out, mill 2 is not. You need mill 3.

I need to purchase replacement heel pads for the Genesis Pro Carb shoe. Which ones do I need?
