Crankbrothers MALLET SPEEDLACE MTB Shoes

The crankbrothers MALLET SPEEDLACE Clip-In shoe cuts a fine figure on the trail and in the bike park. The MTB shoes are equipped with the Speed Lace quick lacing system, and you can store the laces safely and neatly in the integrated lace pocket. The clever MATCH system of the shoes provides you with an optimised interface for any MTB clipless pedal system, whether Crankbrothers or SPD. The Match washers and the Crankbrothers cleats are pre-installed in a neutral position so that the MTB shoes are ready to ride with your Crankbrothers pedals immediately after unpacking. If you ride with a different pedal system, you can simply remove the pre-mounted cleat and washer to convert it to your pedal system. Last but not least, the mountain bike clipless shoes impress with their clever RACE ZONE, which allows you to adjust the cleat position, and the MATCH COMPOUND MC1 rubber compound with the MATCH OUTSOLE for optimum grip and an excellent feel when walking.

Highlights & Technologies:

MATCH:
This is a design that treats the pedal and shoe as a single system and provides an optimised interface for any MTB clipless system, whether Crankbrothers or SPD. The raised cleat box also makes it easier to clip on and out and improves self-cleaning properties.

RACE ZONE:
Thanks to the 5 mm Race Zone, the cleat position can be changed and the cleat can be positioned further back for more control and stability on the descent.

MATCH COMPOUND:
The clever MC1 rubber compound with medium friction hardness makes it easy to clip in and out of the pedal and is sufficiently abrasion-resistant. The radial knob design around the cleat box enables smooth release from the pedal body.

MATCH OUTSOLE:
The tread pattern offers plenty of grip off the bike. A directional, angled and open sole profile in the toe and heel area provides support when ascending and descending on foot. The raised toe area ensures comfortable walking on steep terrain.
