Your legs and feet can move through 120 RPMs, or revolutions per minute, when you’re pedalling fast. That’s a lot of energy travelling through your feet and into the pedals, which makes your cycling shoes, cycling accessories and cycling cleats so important. Our one-stop-online-shop offers the best-quality cycling shoes in Australia across all budgets and riding disciplines, plus all the additions you will need for an efficient, comfortable fit.

Here at BikeChain, you’ll find over 100 pairs of kicks from the best cycling shoe brand on the market, Northwave. Whether you’re after affordable, entry-level options below $100, or you only want the very best, it’s all here. We also offer a great line-up of cycling cleats, again from Northwave as well as BBB and Time. So, how do you choose the right gear for you? The type of riding you do determines the best footwear for you, so let’s start there.
If you’re just starting out biking, chances are you will be wearing runners or comfortable, sensible flat footwear. Once you progress and feel more relaxed and confident on the bike, we strongly recommend you upgrade to a road-riding-specific shoe. Typically, this means a ‘clipless’ shoe. This term is a complete contradiction and can be confusing, as it infers the shoe doesn’t clip. On the contrary, a clipless shoe features a clip that slots into pedals, keeping the foot firmly in place and requiring the rider to ‘clip-out’ in order to remove their foot from the pedal. But more on this shortly! Benefits of road shoes
You typically have two choices of MTB shoe - flat or clipless. Flat will feature textured soles that help to grip the pedal. They enable the rider to swiftly take their foot on or off, rather than having to firstly clip in or out. Clipless mountain bike shoes generally feature an integrated two-bolt system from Time, SDP or crankbrothers. Unlike their road equivalent, this recessed design means the sole is fairly flat and therefore the cyclist can walk or ride easily off the bike (and not imitate a penguin, as we mentioned earlier!). Benefits of MTB shoes
Whilst some brands are beginning to create CX or gravel-specific bike shoes, the majority of MTB options will be appropriate.
Follow these handy hits to find a perfect fit for you:
Bike shoes are a little like a car; when something breaks down over time, you can often replace the part without replacing the entire shoe itself. It’s sustainable, budget-saving and makes smart sense! We stock a handy range of cycling accessories sure to save money. Items include hardware and strap replacements, arch support and cleat covers.
