Shimano RX8 Mountain Bike Shoe - Women's, Because gravel is still an emerging segment, some riders find themselves struggling with footwear choices-especially for racing. Mountain bike shoes offer great walkability, but are often too heavy and overbuilt. This leads many riders opting for lightweight road shoes with ultra-stiff soles that boost pedaling efficiency, but the lack of tread is not ideal for the inevitable hike-a-bike sections found in gravel race events and adventurous rides. Shimano addresses these problems by combining the best characteristics of their high-end road and mountain footwear into one shoe that's specifically designed for gravel racing. Lightweight and stiff, but with grippy outsoles and just enough toe flex to be comfortable to walk in, the RX8 might just be the best option out there for dedicated gravel enthusiasts.Lightweight shoes designed for gravel bike racingCarbon composite sole ensures maximum pedaling efficiencySurround Structure uppers provide a comfortable, glove-like fitLugged rubber outsole adds grip for hike-a-bikeReinforced heel cup for stability under hard pedalingBoa dial and toe strap make it easy to get the right fitPerforations in the upper let your feet breatheWider cleat-to-pedal interface is optimized for XTR M9100 pedalsUpper Materialsynthetic leather, meshClosureBoa IP1Footbedhigh-density cup insole with adaptable arch padsMidsoleTorbalSole[sole] carbon fiber composite, [outsole] abrasion-resistant TPU lugsCleat Compatibility2-boltClaimed Weight9.3ozActivitygravel, cross-country, cyclocrossManufacturer Warranty1 year
