While some may like to take it easy and others love a gravel race, the RX8 SPD cycling shoes are definitely focused on that speedier end of the gravel riding spectrum. This race-inspired focus is ably demonstrated by the use of a super-stiff carbon composite sole, ensuring all your watts are efficiently transferred to the pedals with little waste, letting you crush gravel roads at speed. The sole unit also features stripped back TPU lugs, reducing overall shoe weight while still maintaining sure-footed performance when you're off the bike. With their two-bolt MTB pedal compatibility, you're also assured of the best pedalling efficiency and stability as you zip from gravel to road and back to gravel again.
