Shimano RC5 Road Shoes 2020

Shimano RC5 Road Shoes

Dependable, the Shimano RC5 Road Shoes are the all-day comfortable road shoes that are perfect for the keen cyclist, weekend racer and rapid sportive rider.

Remarkably, for road shoes at a mid-range price point, the RC5 encompass some of the features Shimano also uses in their premium competition shoes. This includes the shoe’s Dynalast design, which produces a glove-like, close fit, that can be customised with the adjustable Boa L6 system for the ultimate in comfort and stability.

For rugged protection and a featherlight feel the upper and lower parts of the shoe are formed with a lightweight synthetic leather. The material is durable while incredibly buoyant which is ideal for the weekend racer and for your regular training sessions.

At the core of the shoe’s structure is a lightweight carbon fibre reinforced nylon composite sole. The sole is rate 8 out of 12 for stiffness offering a great level of power transfer and ensuring a comfortable feel for longer training rides. The slimness of the sole creates a low stack height which keeps your feet close to the pedals for a natural, smooth and powerful pedal stroke.
