The Specialized Recon 3.0 Mountain Bike Shoes in Black deliver elite-level performance for cross-country and gravel riders. Designed with a stiff carbon sole and innovative STRIDE toe-flex technology, these shoes maximize power transfer while maintaining natural movement when off the bike.

Featuring dual BOA® L6 dials, the Recon 3.0 offers micro-adjustable precision for a secure and comfortable fit on long rides. The lightweight upper uses water-resistant materials to keep your feet dry, while SlipNot™ rubber tread ensures superior traction across all terrains.

Whether you're racing XC, tackling gravel roads, or exploring technical trails, the Recon 3.0 delivers the perfect balance of stiffness, comfort, and durability.

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 cable routing, Boa dial placement, and carbon plate directly from our halo S-Works Recon. Dual, premium Li2 Boa Dials offer optimized adjustability and fit, while the cable routing ensures a locked-in feel, minimizing movement within the shoe. 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.
