Ride Concepts Tallac Clipless – High-Performance SPD Trail Shoe

Ride Concepts Tallac Clipless combines advanced off-road footwear technology with bike-specific engineering to create an SPD trail shoe that’s built to handle the toughest adventures. Designed for precision, durability, and comfort, it delivers power to the pedals while remaining comfortable and hike-ready when the trail demands it.

Precision Fit and Power Transfer

Equipped with traditional lacing for a customizable fit and a hook-and-loop PowerStrap for added foot retention, Tallac Clipless keeps your foot locked in with total control. The RC PowerDrive nylon shank provides efficient energy transfer to the pedals while maintaining lateral stiffness and support. A 42 mm oversized cleat box with index markings and an extended runway makes clipping in easy and precise—no matter the conditions.

Engineered for the Trail

The CLIP GRIP™ rubber outsole, developed with Rubber Kinetics (Goodyear), offers outstanding traction on and off the bike. Its reverse hex tread pattern at the toe and heel enhances grip during hike-a-bike sections or technical climbs. Whether riding over slick roots or pushing up steep terrain, Tallac Clipless stays planted and predictable.

Durable and Breathable Construction

The Cordura® bonded upper is lightweight, highly durable, and fully welded for a seamless, abrasion-resistant finish. A TPU mud guard and reinforced toe and heel protection with anti-abrasion film keep your feet safe from trail impacts, rocks, and debris. Despite its rugged build, the shoe remains breathable and comfortable even on hot days.

Comfort and Support for Long Rides

Inside, the D3O® High Impact Zone Technology insole absorbs shocks and reduces fatigue, while an EVA midsole adds cushioning and stability for long hours on the bike. The anti-bacterial mesh lining prevents odor buildup and promotes airflow, and a fully gusseted tongue blocks dirt and dust. The elastic lace tuck keeps your laces secure, and a heel pull tab ensures easy entry after a quick break on the trail.
