FLR Shoe FX-9 MTB

FLR FX-9 MTB Cycling Shoes – Carbon / SPD

The FLR FX-9 is a flagship MTB cycling shoe built for riders who want maximum pedalling efficiency without compromising the durability needed for serious off-road riding. The M550 full-carbon outsole delivers a highly rigid platform, with a stiffness index of 14 for direct power transfer on XC, marathon and race-focused rides.

The upper combines reinforced premium microfiber with nylon mesh ventilation, while FLR's PowerFit construction uses different levels of upper stiffness to provide a secure, supportive fit around the foot. The dual A-Top dial system allows the heel/ankle and forefoot zones to be adjusted independently for a more precise fit.

The FX-9 is also designed to handle the sections where you're off the bike. Its outsole features replaceable walking treads and removable toe spikes, while the recessed 2-bolt cleat mount is compatible with Shimano SPD, Crankbrothers and other standard 2-bolt MTB pedal systems.
