Recon 1.0 Gravel & Mountain Bike Shoe

With the Recon 1.0 our goal was simple—put S-Works Recon-inspired performance in a very accessible package. Easier said than done, but we’ve created a shoe with Body Geometry comfort and efficiency in a durable, dirt-focused shoe. So yeah, mission accomplished.

Using our exclusive STRIDE toe-flex technology, the nylon outsole uses a TPU injected forefoot for natural movement off-bike, while still providing a stiffness index of 6.0 for in-the-saddle performance. The Recon 1.0 is a double threat—efficiency at the pedals with comfort and confidence off bike.

To create traction off the bike in wet or dry, gravel or dirt, we’ve covered the nylon outsole with our SlipNot compound. We’ve also lifted the heel for an even more natural feeling while walking.

Three Velcro closures make slipping into the Recon 1.0 easy, and creates a fit designed for all day comfort and performance, whether your ride calls for open gravel, twisting single track, and even more than your fair share of hike-a-bike.

I like them...

After years of mtb racing using higher level shoes, I found these Recon 1.0 shoes to be very comfortable, yet still performance oriented. Having three separate velcro straps really helps me get a proper fit that I usually don't need to readjust during my rides. And walking on them is so much easier than my previous performance shoes. At this point, I have two active pairs of these puppies with another new set always in reserve. Pricing was right!

No frills just works

At the sale price plus 15% off Specialized is practically giving these away so I got a set. Run exactly true to size, what I ordered fit correctly. Cleats mounted up easy although I did have to rotate them slightly to feel centered. Usually I run cleats dead centered and that feels fine fyi. Power transfer felt fine, Velcro closures worked well, nothing to complain about here at all.

These are narrow for my

These are narrow for my wide feet, but will work OK. Better fit than other brands, so I bought them. Worth the price on sale!

Great value- pick this one

Amazing shoe, especially for the price point. Solid support on the pedals and pliable enough for a comfortable walk with little to no clip contact with ground. Currently using on my road bike with shimano egg-beater style pedals, no hotspots so far. Tempted to switch over on my MTB as well.

Check shoe fit.

I purchased this shoe from my LBS. Using the size conversion chart I determined that I would need a 42 to equal my normal US size of 10.5. The clerk brought out a 42 and 43. Both were way too small. I ended up with a 45 for a comfortable fit.

Great shoe, true to size

Other cycling shoe brands run small (in my opinion). So, I ordered the same size as usual (45). Pleasantly surprised these run true to size and 44 fit perfectly. As noted in the description, this shoe is a 6 on stiffness. If you’re coming from road or fitness cleats, these are more pliable. Much more comfortable off the bike for hikes (or jaunts into the grocery). My last pair of MTB shoes had laces that were a pain to adjust. Velcro is definitely my preferred method for quick adjustments and wardrobe changes (quick on/off for knee pads or peeling off outerwear). These are a great option at this price point too. I don’t replace gear every season (or 2) and still kinda sketch on the BOA system for shoes due to expense and durability issues. These will last a few, I’m guessing. 👍

Return

My road bike shoes I received are too small. A 44.5 is equal to an 11 u.s. but are too small. Informed bike shop where they were delivered but no response yet.
