Description
The UP link low cut is a clipless compatible shoe designed for all mountain use. Working with Shimano, Crankbrothers, Time and Mavic cleats and pedal systems, the UP Link outsole is designed with a few unique features for all mountain madness.

Constructed with a dual compound outsole using higher durometer RH compound for the outer perimeter and softer, vibration absorbing VD compound for the center tread.

Cleat fasteners are internally mounted keeping the bolt head protected. No more hassling with stripped and mangled cleat bolts. Our goal was to make cleat adjustment quick and hassle free.
