What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:"I was surprised how locked-in the CRS fastening feels on rough singletrack. The Stelt Cycling Shoes pedal efficiently without feeling like planks, and the removable spikes are clutch for muddy hike-a-bikes. Light on the foot, plenty of grip, and easy to rinse clean after a messy ride."We pull on the Stelt Cycling Shoes when the plan calls for fast laps, punchy climbs, and the occasional hike-a-bike. Vittoria dials in an easy-breathing, supportive fit that stays comfortable from warmup to final descent, so we can focus on the line—not our feet. A CRS micro-adjust closure fine-tunes pressure across the instep, while the Nylon ProX sole with high-grip technopolymer lugs channels power to the pedals. Up top, tech microfibre and nylon mesh balance durability with airflow, and removable traction spikes add confident footing in mud or on steep run-ups. At about 402g, this is a capable, everyday MTB shoe that’s ready for training and race day alike.
