Highlights & Technologies:

EPS CARBON POWER SOLE 8.0:
This sole is made from nylon that is enriched with carbon to create optimal stiffness. A low stack height ensures smooth pedalling without losing any energy. The stability of the foot is increased thanks to the shape of the sole in the plantar arch area. Five vents provide ventilation inside the shoe. The sole has an anti-slip insert in the toe area and a replaceable pad at the rear. An alignment scale on the sole helps you remember the cleat position. Cleat position options have been increased by approx. 9 mm compared to the previous sole. Stiffness index of the sole: 8 / 12

AIR VENTILATION SYSTEM:
The shoe offers excellent breathability and wicks moisture to the outside for an optimal foot climate and ideal support.



BOA L6:
A closure system consisting of dials and stainless steel wires that allow for precise adjustments. This combination allows cyclists to even adjust the shoes while riding. As there are no Velcro straps, the front part of the shoe is well-ventilated. The shoes can be closed by pushing and turning the dials in the direction of travel. The laces loosen by pulling the dial.

COMFORT FIT TONGUE:
The tongue covers the entire instep and is perforated for high breathability. It comes with soft padding to ensure high comfort.

TRANSPIRATION INSOLE:
Anatomic, comfortable insole. Thanks to a microporous surface, it is particularly breathable. It has ventilation openings.

INTEGRATED ANTI-SLIP HEEL CUP:
The integrated anti-slip heel cup is robust and shape-retaining. Its stabilising shape allows for maximum support and stability inside the shoe.
