Types of Cycling Shoes We Offer
Road Bike Shoes
Road bike shoes are designed for riding on smooth pavement. They’re lightweight, stiff, and they have a smooth sole. Road cyclists love them for their ability to transfer power to the pedal and their lightweight, which is great for long rides. Road bike shoes also have a large cleat that’s exposed, which is why they can be a little tricky to walk in.
Mountain Bike Shoes
Mountain bike shoes are designed for more rugged riding. They’re still stiff for power transfer, but they’re also designed to be a little more comfortable for walking. Mountain bike shoes have a 2-bolt cleat that’s recessed into the sole of the shoe. This design makes it much easier to walk in mountain bike shoes. The flexibility makes them a great option for all-terrain riding, from mountain biking to cyclocross.
Touring Cycle Bike Shoes
Touring shoes are the most versatile cycling shoes and are designed for endurance riding. They’re less about performance and more about comfort. Touring shoes have a more flexible sole that’s designed to be comfortable for walking. They also have a 2-bolt cleat, just like mountain bike shoes. This makes them a great option for touring, where you’ll be spending a lot of time off the bike.
The Benefits of Clip In Cycling Shoes
Clip-in cycling shoes are designed to be worn with clip-in pedals. They’re a great way to increase your power and efficiency while riding. There are a few key benefits to riding with clip-in cycling shoes and pedals.
Improved Pedal Power
One of the main benefits of riding with clip-in cycling shoes is that they allow you to transfer more power from your legs to your pedals. The stiff sole of the cycling shoe and the large surface area of the cleat allow you to create a more efficient pedal stroke. By riding with clip-in cycling shoes, you’ll be able to generate more power with each pedal stroke.
Increased Safety on the Road
Riding with clip-in cycling shoes and pedals can also increase your safety on the road. Clip-in pedals allow you to create a secure attachment between your feet and your pedals. This can help to reduce the risk of your feet slipping off the pedals, especially in wet or slippery conditions.
