The Protone Icon Matte Road Helmet (WG11) has had a redesign, with subtle changes to venting to boost airflow, an improved fit system that's now more comfortable and secure and tweaks to aesthetic design details to bring it right up to date. What hasn't changed is the superb head protection on offer and that race-winning combination of comfort and aerodynamics. Multi In-Moulding Technology From the safety point of view, you'll continue to benefit from Kask's Multi In-Moulding Technology. This sees a durable but lightweight polycarbonate shell fused to the shock-absorbing EPS foam inner. In the event of a crash, this works to dissipate harmful forces that could otherwise cause serious injury. The protective foam is also reinforced internally, providing extra strength and ensuring structural integrity should you be unfortunate enough to fall. WG11 Safety Testing Protocols The Protone also exceeds stringent WG11 testing protocols. This series of scientific-based protocols focus on protection from rotational impact forces, measuring rotational kinematics from both oblique and normal impacts. With these safety protocols adhered to, you can be sure this helmet has you covered should you be unfortunate enough to fall from your bike OctoFit+ Retention System With the OctoFit+ retention system, you can dial in the fit of your Protone quickly and ensure perfect comfort every time you ride. A rubberised dial allows micro-adjustment of the fit while the vertical stabilisers of the previous system have been redesigned to achieve even greater comfort and stability. The secure fit also ensures that in the event of a crash it keeps the helmet in place to afford the very best protection. Self-adjusting lateral divider This provides great rider comfort with minimal adjustment required. After putting on the helmet and fastening the chin strap, the divider moves to fit comfortably around the earlobe. The ergonomic design means a great fit for all head shapes and sizes, guaranteeing freedom of movement and excellent ventilation. Coolmax Padding When the pressure is being applied at the front of the bunch, training is tough or the temperatures are rising fast, it's the Coolmax® padding that will deal with the inevitable sweat build-up. Quick to wick away sweat and quick to dry, you'll be kept cool and comfortable no matter what.
Lighter, Stronger, Faster. Designed for speed and comfort. The Vaypor S once again redefines the standards of pro level road cycling shoes. Our latest flagship shoe has been further refined to improve on our already industry leading standards. Wether you are a pro racer or simply a rider who demands the finest, the Vaypor S will provide the most anatomically and biomechanically correct platform with the most efficient power transfer platform currently available. Features: Durolite Outer Skin Strength to weight ratio's have always played an important part in Bont cycling shoe design as all materials considered and developed for products within the Bont range must comply to strict standards. Durolite has been developed and chosen for the Vaypor S upper for its extremely durable nature and light weight. Unidirectional Carbon And Micro Grid The Vaypor S is manufactured utilizing unidirectional carbon fibre laid specific to stress points to maximise performance whilst minimising weight, creating the highest strength to weight ratio of any cycling shoe currently available. The base is finished with a matt treatment to improve the aesthetics of the sole. Bont Cycling’s Micro Grid allows for greater accuracy in cleat placement and adjustment. Retention System One of the key features of the Vaypor S is it’s new upper design and integrated retention system. Whilst designing the Vaypor S, it was imperative that the shoe would cater to the extremely demanding needs of professional sprinters. Pro sprinters require not only an extremely comfortable shoe with lossless power transfer, but also a highly adjustable retention system that is able to lock them into the heel cup of a shoe without any heel movement. Toe And Heel Protection A new one piece toe guard has been designed to further reduce weight, increase airflow into shoe and improve the aesthetics of the front area. The heel guard has also been designed to improve grip. Ventilation Ventilation of the Vaypor S is maximized by including ventilation holes across the tongue, top of the forefoot, through the front bumper and arch area of the shoe. The ventilation system of the Vaypor S has been designed to create an even airflow around the foot for cooling. Anti Stretch Between the outer leather and the liner we add a material that is proprietary to Bont to stop the cycling shoe from stretching over time. This material has similar strength characteristics to Kevlar. The material is stitched to the outer leather and bonded to the liner so it can never move or be removed, it becomes part of the cycling shoes structure. This layer assits in pedalling efficiency by maintaining a supportive structure over the top of the foot in the upward part of the pedal stroke. Last Design A last is a replica of a foot that the cycling shoe is built around. Last makers do not make cycling shoe lasts, they only make shoe lasts so perfecting a cycling shoe last requires a great deal of expertise in functional biomechanics and ongoing research. At Bont, we have been perfecting our performance footwear lasts since 1975 and the process is ongoing. We believe we place more importance and thus place more effort into our last than any other cycling shoe brand and it is the reason that Bont cycling shoes continue to be a leader in providing the most functional and correct anatomical support to cyclists than any other brand on the market. Our motto in terms of cycling shoe fit is simple, We make shoes for cycling, not walking. Carbon Fiber Bont carbon fiber is sourced exclusively from the world's #1 carbon manufacturer, Toray of Japan. The base of the Vaypor S is made by hand utilizing uni-directional carbon fiber which is embedded with epoxy thermo setting resin. The fibers are hand laid in the matrix according to the strain they will have to bear. The Vaypor S utilizes unidirectional carbon fiber allowing Bont to create a performance cycling shoe with very specific strength characteristics based on stress points in cycling. As unidirectional carbon absorbs less resin then cross weave fibers, it also assists in the weight reduction of the cycling shoes. Padding The Vaypor S utilises closed cell memory foam that will not retain water assisting in maintaining a lighter shoe during wet conditions as well as ensuring sweat which can begin to break down the durability of the shoe is not absorbed. Medial Longitudinal Arch Support Structural medial longitudinal arch support is provided in all models to stop over pronation of feet. Over pronation is one of the main contributors to incorrect tracking of knees during a cyclists pedaling phase due to internal rotation of tibia and femur. This can result in knee injuries. In addition, the rotation of tibia/femur can cause the pelvis to tilt resulting in lower back strain. Anatomical Forefoot Shape Conventional cycling shoes offer a “dress shoe” type shaping. Although highly aesthetic this will cause the toes along with the metatarsals to be overly constricted, compressing the nerves between the metatarsals which often results in the common hot foot sensation. Bont cycling shoes anatomical shaping allows the foot to function in its most efficient and anatomically correct position. The foot is supported in its endeavour to relax through the metatarsal joints allowing the pedalling force to be spread across the greatest possible surface area. Anatomical Heel Cup The anatomical heel cup shaping of Bont cycling shoes provides increased stability during the pull through stage of pedaling stroke and up stroke. This stabilization is achieved without any mechanical operation or over tightening of straps/laces allowing for increased comfort and blood circulation. Lateral Forefoot Support Bont’s lateral forefoot support ensures neutral positioning of the forefoot and alleviates common issues associated with over pronation and supination. These issues often result in incorrect tracking of knees causing injuries along with hip and lower back pain.

From the outset of the Torch 3.0 Road shoe design process our goal was to create a performance offering as feature-packed as any top-end shoe. The challenge however was pulling this off at a palatable price.In order to achieve this we utilized three strategically placed materials on the uppers that are welded together—TPU and mesh in the front and synthetic leather in the rear. This makes for a more comfortable and supportive front of the shoe. A stiff rear and heel cup meanwhile lock down your heel and keep all of your watts going into the pedals as efficiently as possible. This refined upper is combined with our legendary FACT carbon fibre sole to further ensure an efficient power transfer. Finally we topped the Torch 3.0 off with two Boa® S2-SV Snap dials for zonal closure and a precise fit that leads to all-day comfort.> Body Geometry sole construction and footbeds are ergonomically designed and scientifically tested to boost power increase efficiency and reduce chance of injury by optimizing hip knee and foot alignment> FACT™ carbon composite sole and torsion box construction is directionally rigid for outstanding power transfer: Stiffness Index 8.5.> Dual Boa® S2-SV Snap dial closure for on-the-fly micro-adjustment backed by the Boa® Lifetime Guarantee.> Mesh TPU and synthetic layer upper are placed in specific zones for comfort and lock-down and are thermobonded for a superior fit.> Standard Fit for support and all-day comfort.> Three-bolt cleat pattern fits all major road pedals.> Approximate weight: 248g (1/2 pair Size 42)
