Whether we're racing or hitting up the bike park, we're wearing the Mallet Boa Mountain Bike Shoe. Crank Brothers' Match System optimizes engagement for nearly any mountain bike clip-in system, and they come with pre-installed cleats in a neutral position so we can get riding right away. Crank Brothers' mid-friction rubber compound holds up to wear and tear, and the tread pattern offers improved traction on and off the bike.
