ROCKRIDER ST100 Women's Mountain Bike Shoes

WHAT IS A HYBRID SOLE? WE'LL TELL YOU ALL ABOUT IT

You might need to push or carry your bike depending on the terrain you encounter. So to make sure your foot stays comfortable whether riding or walking, we've designed a versatile sole inspired by trail running (for grip on the ground) and mountain biking (for grip on the pedals).
The heel reinforcement and flexion line makes these very comfortable when walking. The multi-directional lugs also evacuate water and mud both when going up and downhill, whether on the ground or on your bike.

UPPER, SOCKLINER AND TONGUE DESIGNED FOR YOUR COMFORT

Why should a pair of MTB shoes be less comfortable than a pair of trainers?
In addition to its elasticated sockliner and specially-designed internal shape, the top, sides, and tongue are made from 3D mesh. This fabric is excellent for perspiration wicking and is also very comfortable. The heel is also lined with foam.
The Rockrider team has made some smart design, uncompromising choices by placing comfort at the heart of their tests and decisions.

TIDY LACES

The team chose to add a small elasticated tongue placed at the centre of the laces to help keep them tidy and prevent them coming in contact with the bike chain. Handy!

TOE BOX

The ST 100 shoes are reinforced with a "toe box": a combination of PU and PES, these materials are located in the areas most exposed to spraying stones and impacts.

HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR SHOE SIZE

You can use our size guide (higher up near the sizing section) to choose your shoe size according to the length and width of your feet.
For a wider foot, try the next size up from your normal shoe size.

WHAT ABOUT TOE CLIPS? LET US EXPLAIN

When first trying out mountain biking, self-locking pedals might not be a priority. This is why these shoes provide grip on the pedals even without toe clips. And if you decide to go that way, the sole has a rigid section for attaching your toe clips without needing to make any changes!
Easily attach your SPD toe clips thanks to the 2 holes (usually 4) and a reference guide engraved into the surface of the sole.

WHICH PEDALS ARE COMPATIBLE?

Which toe clips and/or pedals should I use with your shoes?
For optimal grip, use the following models:
-B'Twin SPD Semi-Auto 500
-B'Twin SPD Auto 100
-B'Twin SPD Auto 520
-Shimano SPD Semi-Auto M324
-Shimano SPD Auto M520
-Shimano SPD Auto XT-M780
Compatibility with clippable Enduro/Freeride type platform pedals is not guaranteed (e.g.: B'Twin SPD Auto 540 Cage, Shimano SPD Auto Enduro XT-M8020, Shimano SPD Auto M424). Try these pedals out ahead of buying.

The story behind the ST 100 MTB shoes

First, an observation: when you start out with MTB, you'll spend time both on your bike and on the ground.
To ensure your shoes are just as comfortable whether cycling or walking, our 4-person team spent 2 years designing, prototyping, laboratory and field testing with 50 people.
The result is these shoes that provide grip when on foot and on the bike on MTB paths.

ADVICE FROM THE TEAM

And to finish, here's some advice from our MTB design team:
"Even without using toe clips, these shoes have a good grip on the pedal, you can get going without risking slipping and bashing your legs on the pedals. It also gives you the chance to test out toe clips without spending too much. And to prevent any nasty falls, remember to fasten the laces under the elasticated band found halfway up the shoe!"
