Mountain Bike Shoes
|
Cycling shoes come in four basic variants: for road racing, touring, off road or mountain biking, and spinning. Mountain bike shoes have a recessed cleat and studs generally smaller than road-specific cleats. Some mountain bike shoes have a little engineered flex in the toe area forward of the cleat mount. This assists in walking and in climbing obstacles while carrying the bike. More expensive shoes usually have less frontal flex. A good mountain bike shoe will be durable, comfortable and should have a stiff sole for better pedaling efficiency. You should also pick the right shoe for the terrain you will be riding in. There are many good brands on the market, including Adidas, Five.Ten, Shimano, Specialized, Mavic, and SIDI mountain bike shoes. |
