Just like us, the Shimano XC502  Mountain Bike Shoes won't be held back to one discipline. Whether we're taking these shoes and our bikes out to the local cross-country loops or going on big weekend gravel rides with the crew we trust the XC502's to get us home. We're confident using these shoes during big trail rides or cyclocross races thanks to the aggressive tread on the outsole. These shoes are tough, resilient, and add on a level of performance not seen with their trail or enduro counterparts.
