The new 2FO – it stands for ‘foot out, flat out’ – comes in flat and clipless versions and is aimed squarely at all-mountain and DH riders, with a focus on pedal connection, comfort and protection.
- Spesh worked with their tyre department to develop
the Slipnot rubber compound used on the soles. On the flat pedal shoe, the
focus is on grip and durability, with a tighter-packed tread on the forefoot
for a better pedal connection.
- The clipless shoe has a dual-durometer sole, with a
firmer compound and lower tread around the cleat cut-out – an area dubbed the ‘Landing
Strip’ by Specialized – to help guide the foot in.
- The upper and tongue are made from a mesh material
that dries quickly and is breathable too.
- The injection-moulded toe bumper does a good job of
fending off rock strikes.
- Inside the shoe, a Body Geometry footbed ensures the
fit is spot-on.
PRICE: Flat 130$, Clip 180$
