Specialized Recon 1.0 MTB Shoes Maroon Size 43 EU UK 8.6

Condition is like new. Bought for a five day road trip in Netherlands where I wanted a MTB shoe that you could walk in. Comes with Shimano cleat blanking plate (£10 cost), easy removed to attached cleats. Totally versatility, ideal for gravel, commute/touring and off road. Add cleats or use the Shimano blanking plate for a flat sole.

Specialized Description:

Easier said than done but Specialized have created a shoe with body geometry comfort and efficiency in a durable dirt-focused shoe.

Using the exclusive stride toe-flex technology the nylon outsole uses a tpu injected forefoot for natural movement off-bike while still providing a stiffness index of 6.0 for in-the-saddle performance. The recon 1.0 is a double threat efficiency at the pedals with comfort and confidence off bike. To create traction off the bike in wet or dry gravel or dirt they've covered the nylon outsole with slipnot compound. The heel has been lifted for an even more natural feeling while walking.

Three velcro closures make slipping into the recon 1.0 easy and creates a fit designed for all day comfort and performance whether your ride calls for open gravel twisting single track and even more than your fair share of hike-a-bike.

Features:

• Body Geometry sole and footbed are built with purpose and backed by science to boost power, increase efficiency, and reduce the chance of injury by optimising hip, knee, and foot alignment.
• Injection STRIDE toe-flex technology allows for natural toe movement off-bike but remains stiff for pedalling (stiffness index 6.0)
• SlipNot™ rubber tread for confident traction on all terrain.
• Two-bolt cleat pattern fits all major MTB pedals.
• Approximate weight: 331g
