Stealth C4 Rubber is a high-performance rubber used in the outsole of our shoes, specifically designed for mountain biking. It offers exceptional grip and traction on pedals, allowing for better control and stability during rides. The C4 formulation balances durability and stickiness, ensuring that you can tackle challenging terrains with confidence.

EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) is a lightweight and flexible foam material used in the footbed and midsole of our shoes. It provides excellent shock absorption, which helps reduce the impact on your feet during rides. This cushioning ensures that you stay comfortable, even on longer biking adventures, making your experience more enjoyable.

Compression-molded refers to the manufacturing process used to create the EVA midsole in our shoes. By shaping the material under heat and pressure, we create a denser and more durable foam. This process enhances the shoe's ability to absorb shocks and provide support, resulting in a more comfortable and resilient shoe for your biking needs.

Clipless pedals are a type of pedal system that uses cleats attached to the bottom of your shoes to secure your feet to the pedals. This system allows for better power transfer while pedaling, meaning you can ride more efficiently. Despite the name, "clipless" means there are no visible clips; instead, the cleats lock into the pedal mechanism, providing a secure connection.

The term "2-hole" indicates that our shoes have two holes for attaching cleats, which is standard for mountain biking. This design allows you to use specific cleats that enhance your riding experience. Additionally, the "platform" feature means you can ride without cleats, using the shoe as a regular sneaker. This versatility is perfect for riders who want the option to switch between using cleats and riding flat pedals.

Absolutely! Our shoes are designed with versatility in mind. The 2-hole cleat compatibility allows you to use them with clipless pedals for mountain biking, while the platform feature lets you ride them as regular sneakers. This makes them ideal for both serious biking sessions and casual rides around town, ensuring you get the most out of your investment.
