As the 2024 season approaches, we are delving into the world of clipless shoes and exploring the choices made by professional riders. In our search for answers, we have been collaborating with Ben Cathro, a prominent figure in downhill racing who has been sharing his insights and perspectives on racing for years.
In this article, we will be examining the science (or lack thereof) behind clipless shoes and the preferences of top riders around the world. One of the companies that have been at the forefront of this development is Five Ten, which has worked closely with elite athletes to develop top-performing clipless shoes that have led to numerous victories in DH racing history.
One such shoe is the Five Ten Hellcat Pro, which offers superior traction and control for riders looking to take their performance to the next level. The shoe’s unique cleat positioning system allows riders to customize their foot placement for maximum comfort and efficiency, while its durable construction ensures that it will stand up to even the most demanding conditions.
