Extended rear lugs give extra confidence on downhill slopes while the wide-spaced tread also prevents mud from clogging up the shoe and disrupting easy pedal entry.

A 360-degree surround upper hugs the foot, offering a stable pedalling platform for efficient power transfer throughout your pedal stroke. It also sees an optimized toe-spring section that ensures efficient and powerful pedalling with a reduction in foot fatigue over long distances. The toe box shape has also benefited from further refinement and the improved design now offers comfort to a wider range of foot shapes.To the heel, an anti-twist heel cup and glass-fibre reinforced heel stabiliser work seamlessly together to resist flex and instability during your higher power output efforts.Function Specific ZonesBorrowed from the RC902 road shoe, the XC9s utilise the same functional-specific zones to enhance foot stabilisation and minimise energy loss. This sees non-stretch and flexible materials deployed in key zones, giving you the very best in foot stability, perfect venting, minimal weight and the aforementioned minimised energy loss when pedalling. Dual BOA® Li2 dialsWhen it comes to a precise fit, the twin BOA® Li2 dials give you the ultimate in quick and easy control. Micro-adjustment for both tightening and loosening ensure you get the fit just as you want it every time you ride.
