The MTB SRS Carbon-Ground Sole raises the standard for mountain bike performance, dropping about 100g per pair compared to the previous Dragon Carbon SRS sole, without sacrificing power or durability.
It consists of replaceable tread blocks in the toe and heel, attached to a medium-modulus carbon sole, plus the innovative Replaceable MTB Plate, designed to prevent sole damage from pedal contact.
Most dual-retention bar type MTB pedals (such as Crankbrothers and Look) recommend using a reinforcement plate between the cleat and the shoe, in order to prevent cracking or denting the sole. The MTB Plate can be replaced in case of damage from the pedal system, so adding the weight of an aftermarket reinforcement plate is optional.
The Ground SRS treads and MTB Plate are easily removable and replaceable, and the MTB SRS Carbon-Ground sole is toe spike compatible.
