Mountain bike shoe for flat pedalsThe GF600 from Shimano is the perfect mountain bike shoe for adrenaline-fuelled, rough descents! The rubber compound and the profile of the sole are optimised for the best grip on flat pedals, so that you can accelerate without hesitation when gravity biking without ever losing control. The outsole also comes with water drainage channels so that you don't have to worry about any loss of performance even in damp and wet conditions. The sturdy upper material can handle the enduro, downhill and freeride fun without complaining, and the lacing ensures a good fit and proper comfort.Clever features and extra protectionSince things can get a little rough on tough descents, the additional protective features such as an asymmetrically raised shaft, the raised side sole and the toe protection are welcome additions. The TORBAL torsion plate offers a little more flexibility on the outer sides for improved control on fast descents and sharp turns. In combination with the multi-layer EVA midsole, this also provides extra shock absorption and comfort.
