According to the product specialist
Pros
Optimised traction in wet weather conditions and excellent grip thanks to the rubber sole. |
The ME502 have a fibreglass-reinforced nylon midsole for high cycling comfort. |
The synthetic leather material makes these shoes very durable. |
The shoes can be made to fit perfectly with the BOA dial mechanism. |
No problems with the dial closure during trail rides because it has the L6 protective shield. |
These MTB shoes are very comfortable. |
The breathability is very good due to the many ventilation holes. |
An optimal fit thanks to the new X-Dial SLW3 closure. |
Unpleasant pressure points are prevented thanks to the Unibody construction. |
Precise adjustment of the closing mechanism by means of the rotary knob and two velcro straps. |
The combination of carbon and nylon in the sole makes this shoe stiff yet comfortable enough for long rides. |
Cons
The Velcro strap may eventually lose some of its efficiency when often splashed with dirt. |
As the sole is of an average stiffness, power transfer is not optimal. |
Unpleasant pressure points are avoided thanks to the Unibody construction. |
Supplied without optional spikes. These can be ordered separately. |
