SCOTT MTB RC Ultimate Cycling Shoe
The SCOTT MTB RC Ultimate Cycling Shoe is a premium cross-country mountain bike shoe developed for high-performance riders and racers who demand maximum power transfer, precise fit, and dependable traction. Sitting at the top of SCOTT's Racing Concept (RC) collection, the MTB RC Ultimate combines an ultra-stiff carbon fiber midsole, BOA® Fit System Li2, Racing Fit, and high-traction Nitrile Rubber outsole for uncompromising XC performance.
Developed together with elite riders, this shoe is built for speed. Whether you're racing cross-country, attacking steep climbs, or pushing the pace during intensive training sessions, the SCOTT MTB RC Ultimate delivers the stiffness, stability, and control required for competitive riding.
Ultra-Stiff Carbon Fiber Midsole
At the heart of the MTB RC Ultimate is an ultra-stiff carbon fiber midsole with a stiffness index of 10. This race-focused construction minimizes unwanted flex and helps transfer your power directly into the pedals.
The extremely rigid platform provides outstanding responsiveness during accelerations and climbs, making the MTB RC Ultimate particularly suitable for XC racers and performance-focused riders who want maximum pedaling efficiency.
BOA® Fit System Li2
The BOA® Fit System Li2 provides precise micro-adjustment, allowing you to fine-tune the fit for optimal comfort and foot stability.
Combined with the lightweight and adaptable polyurethane upper, the BOA® system securely wraps around the foot and helps keep it firmly positioned during powerful efforts and technical riding.
Racing Fit for Maximum Performance
SCOTT's Racing Fit creates a close and performance-focused connection between your foot and the shoe. The supportive construction helps minimize unwanted movement while maintaining the comfort required for demanding races and training sessions.
The lightweight polyurethane upper adapts to the shape of the foot, providing a secure fit without unnecessary bulk.
ErgoLogic Adjustable Support
The removable ErgoLogic insole provides customizable support with adjustable arch and metatarsal elements. This allows riders to personalize the internal support of the shoe for improved stability and comfort.
Combined with the Racing Fit, the ErgoLogic system creates a supportive platform designed for high-intensity riding.
Reliable Traction in All Conditions
Mountain bike racing doesn't always keep you on the bike. The Nitrile Rubber outsole provides dependable traction across a wide range of surfaces and conditions.
Whether you're running up a steep section, walking across rocks, or tackling loose and muddy terrain, the grippy outsole helps provide confidence and control when you're off the pedals.
2-Bolt MTB Cleat Compatibility
The SCOTT MTB RC Ultimate is compatible with 2-bolt MTB cleats, making it suitable for the clipless pedal systems commonly used for cross-country mountain biking and racing.
The combination of recessed cleats and a grippy outsole also provides improved walkability when compared with traditional road cycling shoes.
