Sale includes the cleats and shims SH-RP9 CYCLING SHOES INFORMATION The Shimano RP-9 Cycling Shoes offer a more traditional buckle and strap system as the way to find better performance. One of the amazing things about the march of technology is how the awesome has become commonplace. This shoe outperforms pro-level shoes of several years ago, but it is considered an intermediate level shoe—RP stands for Road Performance. The sole is molded out of carbon, with a Shimano stiffness rating of 11. The three-bolt mounting system has fore-aft adjustments so pretty much everybody can find their perfect cleat position. There is both an ample heel pad for walking, and a protective toe pad and toe cap for setting the front of the shoe on the ground when starting off. Sitting on top of the sole is an insole that is formed of dense foam, and will adapt as your foot pressure molds it over time. The upper is built out of perforated synthetic leather, with mesh window for getting air inside. The buckle and two strap system is designed so that the straps pull the shoe evenly over your foot without pressure points. The buckle is the reverse of what you typically see, with the tongue fixed to the side of the shoe, and the buckle coming over the top of your foot. The tongue’s position can be adjusted depending on how you like the shoe wrapping around your foot. The Shimano SH-RP9 Cycling Shoes weigh in at 291g for a size 42.
