Who's It For: The GR-501's are an excellent choice for Trail, Enduro and Downhill riders looking for understated shoes for flat pedal action. The 2E equivalent width makes them well suited to riders with wide feet.
Pedal Interface: These are flat pedal shoes.
Closure: Standard lace-up design with an elastic loop on the tongue to secure your laces so your chainring doesn't eat them.
Upper Materials: Durable perforated synthetic upper for protection and breathability
Sole Materials: Sticky rubber outsole compound provides superb grip on pedals and dirt. The GR-501's rate a 2 out of 11 of Shimano's stiffness chart so they are very much at the comfort end of the spectrum.
