Specialized Recon 3.0 Gravel & Mountain Bike Shoe

KOM/QOM chasers, race podium challengers, and all devotees of speed don’t need to sacrifice comfort, durability, or off-the-bike capability when searching for an efficient race-ready shoe with the scientifically proven performance benefits of Body Geometry. A shoe that looks good, feels good, and is light yet capable can be hard to find—well; it used to be. Meet the all-new Recon 3.0, a not-so-distant relative to its S-Works counterpart: made for speed, durability, comfort, and now lighter than ever before.

Body Geometry: Like every Body Geometry shoe, the Recon 3.0 is ergonomically designed and scientifically proven to improve comfort, increase performance, and reduce the chance of injury for every rider with patented technology, while improving power by 7 watts - validated by science.

Stride Technology: Stride technology provides a flexible outsole and upper around the toe box combined with a stiff cleat pocket, enabling the shoe to easily flex when walking and remain stiff and efficient when pedaling.

High Performance & Efficiency: The Recon 3.0 pulls its lace routing, BOA® dial placement, and carbon plate directly from our halo S-Works Recon. The BOA® Fit System featuring dual-dial Li2 delivers micro adjustable, multi-directional precision fit for improved performance. The carbon plate keeps the Recon 3.0 lightweight and stiff for optimal power output on the pedal, not to mention shaving 10 grams off our previous generation.
