Testing The Best Clip Shoes For BMX Racing!

Which shoe is the fastest out of the shimano line up? The XC903 are nearly double the cost of the RX801, but are they really twice as good?

very nice very nice, i just made the upgrade from xc702s to xc902s after downgrading from rx8s, so we'll see how that goes

I used the RX8 for a few years. Have now changed to the xc702. While they supposedly have a softer sole, they don't feel softer and the design of the upper has way less flex so there is better power transfer IMO. They are also easier to clip in, and walk in than the RX8 (which IS a good shoe). I haven't bothered with the 902 because they are double the price, heavier, and also objectively I can't see the extra one level of stiffness being worth it, and tests i've seen also show the difference is minimal at best. I think if you guys want to really do a meaningful test, you need to do timed runs out of the gate to the 30ft line, and also first straights.🙂

The xc702s have definitely risen in popularity lately and are another great option! And you're right about the testing, we may have to revisit this topic some day to hit some proper scientific numbers! But for this video we wanted to focus more on general ride feel.

You guys should make a video about the best frames

You should do a give away with the 903s to all your subscribers.
