Dial Lace Cycling Shoes

Types of shoes

• Mountain bike: Added traction for rugged trails; options for clipless or flat pedals

• Road cycling: Stiffest soles for efficient pedaling; cleats connect to clipless pedals for maximum pedaling efficiency.

• City biking: Comfortable, everyday; good for recreational riding or commuting

Find the right fit 

• Choose shoes that feel comfortable from the start

• Make sure your toes have enough room to wiggle slightly

• Arches should feel snug and supported; heel should stay in place 

Shoe closure:

• Lace-up: Most customizable fit, can get wet or dirty in bad weather

• Strap: Quick to adjust and more likely to stay secure

• Dial lace: Delivers an adjustable fit with a quick-release cable system

• Single-pull lace: Easy on and off with a single lace toggle

Do you want to see or be seen? (Or both?) 

• High-output lights: Help you see where you’re going in nearly all conditions. More expensive but much brighter than safety lights, usually rechargeable. 
• Safety lights: Front, side and rear lights help motorists see you in low light. The brightest ones improve your visibility in daytime. Can be rechargeable or battery powered. 

Where will you be riding? 

• For streets with streetlights: Choose a front light with a narrow-focus beam
• For darker roads or trails: Choose a wide-focus beam for better peripheral vision
• You can find beam patterns listed in online product descriptions or ask a sales specialist for help.

How to understand bike light specs 

• Most bike lights are LEDs, which are energy efficient, durable and available in a wide range of brightness levels.  
• Lumens describe the light intensity of each lighting unit. A higher price generally equals higher light output.
