Shoes for Mountain Bikes
What is the mountain bike sport? Mountain bike sport is sports that use a mountain bike 4×4 vehicles explore different fields such as forests, hills, valleys, desert and mountainous areas with no problems. Or in the sense that all paths can be conquered by mountain bike. In the sport of mountain bikes is concerned shall we wear shoes because the shoes play an important role in sport mountain bike. Shoes are good, strong and comfortable in use will have an impact in the mountain bike. Because the shoe is a source of strength from our feet.
The main thing I need to know to choose the shoes for a mountain biker has some peculiarities of its own.
The weight of the shoe
This side of the most important. Because the weight of the shoe can reach 1 kilogram or half a kilogram each leg riders. When choosing shoes for cycling, it’s worth choosing shoes with the lightest weight. Before the feet come burdened when riders pedal.
Select the type of rope
Determine the type of practicality shoelaces. For strength, type of lace-up shoes have a better power option can ask the user desires.

Tread shoe material
There are several criteria and the needs of the sole forms and ways for it.
Select shoes with tread is solid. Not a construction made of rubber pressure or pressure created separately and then attached with an adhesive / glue to form a shoe sole. Some shoe manufacturers make shoes designed for the site to attract buyers. Usually in the treads of shoes made colorful. In contrast, manufacturers sometimes function also provides the difference between the 2 different materials, such as a mixture of synthetic rubber and natural rubber to support the strength and power grip. Then the rubber material that was stuck together with glue to form a shoe sole.
It is better to avoid choosing a material with adhesive systems, because the type of shoe soles in the glue will be easy to open / off when hit by pedal with sharp serrations.
Choose the palm with a solid material in order to 1 materials are not easily damaged. And avoid composition made with lots of adhesive and the coated surface layers of shoes from several sheets of rubber or synthetic materials.
Sole form
Determining that this one is not absolute. This section is not too important, except for driving on slippery terrain and loose soil. When the field is passed through the soil more loose, and slippery and rocky. There are good looking shoe soles with rough surfaces. Usually these types of shoes is more severe than shoes that have smooth tread surface.

Shoes with a neck
Some shoe manufacturers bicycle manufacturers even took out of a shoe with or without the neck. Shoes with a neck at the ankle is made higher than the size shoe or similar sports such as mountain climbing boots. The question is, whether the user requires a bike that type of shoes. Should choose shoes for a bike without a neck. Because it would interfere with the foot while pedaling a bicycle.

Use shoes with tread without large mouth on the edge of the shoe sole
Consider the special shoe products from bicycle manufacturers. Generally made without the lip on the tread, and the underside is made convex to reduce friction or crank rod.
Shoes with wide tread designed to give a greater field on the surface of the shoe sole. But it needs to be reminded that cyclists put foot on the pedal a little. So tread does not necessarily require a large shoe size.
Using a wide sole, will not make your feet move freely. Even not too useful for mountain bike users.
Another thing is the lip width shoes that are too wide will disturb and hit the pole crank when driving.
