The Crankbrothers Candy Gravel/XC Shoes are the perfect companion for those long, adventurous rides—whether you’re covering miles of Gravel, crossing continents by bike, or embarking on Singletrack adventures deep in the hills.
The Crankbrothers Candy Gravel/XC Shoes feature a stiff, fiber-reinforced nylon shank for efficient power transfer, along with a minimalist synthetic upper, a vibration-absorbing EVA insole, and a relaxed fit to provide all-day comfort.
The innovative Match System optimizes engagement with Crankbrothers clip-in pedals, while the extended 35mm cleat track maintains compatibility with other common clip-in pedals
Premium Materials and Construction
The Candy Lace’s premium synthetic upper is made from durable, water-resistant materials, featuring perforations to enhance breathability. A traditional lacing system with a lace lock keeps the foot comfortably secure.
Optimized pedal interface
A rigid, fiber-reinforced nylon shank efficiently transfers power, while a 35mm-long extended cleat track allows for a customized cleat position. The depth of the cleat socket has been carefully chosen to allow for optimal contact between the shoe and the pedal.
Adventure-Ready Outsole
The full-coverage MC1 rubber outsole and directionally angled lugs on the toe and Talon provide traction on any terrain. The ramped toe and curved outsole profile allow for a natural stride off the bike. The non-slip midfoot zone offers stability when not in the cleats.
Toe Protection
A TPU-reinforced toe cap combined with a raised sole at the front of the shoe provides critical impact protection.
