A HYBRID SOLE
Depending on the terrain, you may have to push or carry your mountain bike.
So to give you comfort and support on foot as well as on bike, we've designed a hybrid sole, inspired by trail riding (for grip on the ground) and mountain biking (for grip on the pedals).
With its heel reinforcement and flex line, you benefit from real walking comfort.
And its multidirectional ridged lugs evacuate water and mud, whether on the ground or on the pedals, uphill or downhill.
COMFORTABLE AND DURABLE
As well as giving you grip on both foot and bike, the ST 500 also allows you to set off on your hikes with a light mind: its resistant shell limits shocks and abrasion. As for the elastic liner all around the opening, it allows you to put on your shoe easily and prevents dust and stones from getting in.
And to avoid unintentional snags, you can store the quick lacing system in the tongue of the shoe!
REINFORCED FRONT AREA
The front part of the foot is reinforced to protect against unexpected impacts or stones thrown at it.
AUTOMATIC WHEEL CHOCKS
When you're new to mountain biking, automatic pedals aren't necessarily a priority.
That's why this shoe gives you grip on the pedal, even without a cleat. And if you want to take the plunge, the sole has a rigid part so you can attach your cleat without having to adjust anything!
Easily attach your SPD cleats thanks to just 2 holes and a reference imprint engraved on the surface of the sole.
COMPATIBILITY WITH AUTOMATIC WEDGES
For optimum engagement, use the following models:
-BTWIN SPD SEMI-AUTO 500
-BTWIN SPD AUTO 100
-BTWIN SPD AUTO 520
-SHIMANO SPD SEMI-AUTO M324
