Shimano XC7 Carbon MTB SPD Shoes (XC702)If you're a keen cross country mountain biker or cyclocross racer (or maybe both!), the Shimano XC7 Carbon MTB SPD Shoes (XC702) deliver unrivalled comfort and performance for off-road riding. Whether it's the mad dash off the start of a cyclocross race, the challenges of riding cross country trails that blast up and down hill, or chasing off-road KOMs on gravel, the XC7 Carbon MTB SPD Shoes (XC702) are the ideal companion. Technology from Shimano's S-PHYRE XC902 trickles downwards, giving the weekend racer and XC rider impressive performance at a keen price point. Foot-wrapping UpperProviding you with a stable and secure pedalling platform is the foot-wrapping technology taken from their top-tier XC race shoes. The upper surrounds the foot snugly but at the same time reduces overlap, removing hot spots and stabilizing the foot throughout each pedal revolution. The synthetic material used for the upper is also impressively supple, giving a glove-like fit that's comfortable for off-road rides, both long and short. It's lightweight and breathable too, optimising comfort on those hot and hilly days of mountain biking. The Power of CarbonWhen it comes to driving you forward rapidly across rough trails it's hard to beat the carbon-reinforced outsole of the XC7s. Rated 9 out of 12 on the Shimano stiffness scale, your watts are transferred to the pedals with minimal power loss. However, a small degree of flex does help to alleviate the buzz from rough terrain too. The stack height is also reduced compared to previous iterations, improving both foot support, power transfer and efficiency. If you need to hop off the bike and scramble up a steep muddy bank in a cross race or scope out trail features on an XC trail, the ULTREAD™ compound gives you a secure grip on almost any terrain. The carefully designed stud and tread pattern aid grip further while also being quick to clear mud. Dual BOA® L6 dialsIn order to get optimal comfort, the XC7 makes use of dual L6 dials. Micro adjustment of the fit across the upper and lower of the foot is made quick and easy via a turn of each dial. Whether tightening up for a stiff hill climb effort or loosening to boost comfort on a hot trail day, you can get the fit just right to suit your needs. And at the end of a ride, simply pull the dials up for a quick release of the laces. Cleat GuidanceThese MTB shoes are compatible with MTB pedal systems, which use cleats with SPD standard (2-bolt standard), e.g.: Shimano SPD, Time ATAC, CrankBrothers, CrankBrothers Race, Look MTB, Xtreme MTB, Wellgo MTB, Ritchey MTB. Features:Improved mesh and TPU upper for the perfect balance between breathability, support and durabilitySurround wrapping upper structure reduces overlap, providing a glove-like fit and eliminating hot-spotsMidsole construction cuts stack height, significantly improves ventilation and water drainageCarbon-reinforced nylon outsole maximises power transfer and pedalling efficiencySole construction, based on the S-PHYRE XC902, complete with Shimano ULTREAD™ compound for maximum grip and durabilityOptimised stud pattern to avoid mud stackingDual BOA® L6 dials ensure precise fit and comfortWeight: 300g (size 42)Stiffness rating: 9/122-bolt cleat compatible (cleats not supplied)Buy Shimano Footwear from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

A low stack height gets your foot closer to the pedal axle, improving efficiency and foot support still further.Shimano's ULTREAD™ compound also features.
