Fizik R2 Vento Powerstrap Aeroweave Road ShoesA new breed of super-light and super-ventilated racing shoes, the Fizik R2 Vento Powerstrap Aeroweave Road Shoes deliver race-winning, rival-dropping pedalling performance alongside outstanding levels of cool airflow. Fizik's engineers set themselves the task of creating a super-light shoe that made no sacrifices to foot support and pedalling performance. It also had to be incredibly breathable too. The result is the R2 Vento Powerstrap Aeroweave Road Shoes. Aeroweave TechnologyAeroweave is an innovative woven fabric, interweaving lightweight nylon fibres with filaments of thermoplastic polymer. This combination creates a net-like structure that is highly durable but offers incredible levels of ventilation. Not only that, Aeroweave offers a supple fit, moving and cradling the foot for comfort while retaining the full support you need for a stable and efficient pedal stroke. Powerstrap PerformanceThe R2 Vento Powerstrap Aeroweave secure your foot with a simple but ingenious configuration of the traditional strap system.In order to offer stability and comfort throughout your ride, the Powerstrap system features a lightweight and reliable hook and loop strap system that pulls together the two sides of the upper. However, unlike a traditional system, the Powerstraps fully wrap around the upper. This provides even pressure across the whole foot, the ribbon wrapping around your foot for an unrivalled level of riding comfort. Another benefit is a much more aero finish than a traditional strap system. R2 Carbon OutsoleThe stiffest and lightest sole unit in the Fizik range, R2 Carbon Outsole delivers incredible responsiveness, with power transferred to your pedals with outstanding efficiency. Jump for a sprint or attack a climb and you're rewarded with immediate acceleration - only fitness is holding you back.Efficient pedalling is also optimised thanks to the cleat track position. This has been set further rearwards to improve pedalling dynamics, reduce knee compression and power transfer - it's especially well-suited to very aggressive, forward aero riding positions.Cleat GuidanceThese Cycling Shoes are compatible with road bike pedal systems that use cleats with 3-bolt standards, such as: Look Delta and Keo, Shimano SPD-SL, Speedplay Light Action, Zero, X-Series (via 3-hole adapter plate), Campagnolo Pro-Fit, Mavic Zxellium, Time Iclic/Xpresso and Time Impact.Features:Aeroweave - extremely breathable, high tenacity net-like upper structurePowerstrap - foot-wrapping Velcro closure designed for an enveloping fitR2 carbon outsole - optimized cleat positioning, high stiffness andlightness tuned for power transferR2 outsole - full carbon, stiffness index 103-bolt cleat compatible (cleats not supplied)Weight: 196g (size 42)Buy Fizik Footwear from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.

Fizik Gravita Tensor Clip MTB ShoesThe Fizik Gravita Tensor Clip MTB Shoes have been engineered for the downhill and enduro mountain biker who wants a tough but lightweight shoe with a supportive sole unit that is perfect for full-commitment hard-charging clipped in riding.There's nothing more thrilling than riding fast on your mountain bike. And when you're getting rowdy, the Gravita Tensor Clip MTB Shoes have been engineered to give you that ideal balance of protection, durability and a precise fit. X6 Outsole. Clip in and Stay in Control.The heart of the Tensor Clip shoe is the X6 Outsole. It's this that keeps you confidently on the pedals and is crucial for reacting quickly, aggressively and nimbly to changing terrain and trail features.For the clipped version of the Gravita Tensor, Fizik has utilised a Vibram XS EVO tread compound. This isn't quite as sticky as that found on the flat-pedal shoe but makes for a smoother engagement and disengagement from clip-in pedals.The rubber compound is formed into a zonal lug pattern. Low profile mid-foot tread offers an optimal mechanical interface with pedal bodies, keeping you planted even if you don't immediately find your clip in point. Meanwhile, the heel and toes feature a deeper tread for greater traction when hiking back up the hill.Flex is also tuned for the clip-in rider. The stiffness gets a boost, rated 5 out of 10 on the Fizik stiffness scale, optimising power transfer and improving pedalling efficiency.Precision FitDownhill and enduro racing is all about shorter more intense efforts. Sprinting from the start gate, pushing hard into berms and lung-busting racing to the finish line. And it's the precise fit of the Gravita Tensor that supports your foot during those efforts. No power wasted.The ergonomically designed lace pattern creates an even tension across the foot and makes for easy adjustment to how you like your shoes to feel. Stability is also enhanced via Fizik's Powerstrap. Sitting over the instep, it stabilises the plantar arch and locks your heel in place. It also doubles as a lace lock.Durable and ProtectiveWhile rowdy mountain bike riding demands a tough shoe, Fizik didn't want to add unnecessary bulk or weight to the Tensor. The solution was to use a slim silhouette and utilise rip-stop fabrics that are very tough and yet remarkably light in weight.The rip-stop upper is also complemented by an injection-moulded TPU armoured toe-box to ward off rocks and roots - just what you need when you're foot out and flat out. Laminated scuff-guards also protect in high wear areas.Lastly, when riding aggressively you're constantly moving and it's easy to hit your ankle to cranks and swingarms. Here the raised inner ankle pad takes the sting out of those impacts, while not affecting your ankle mobility.Cleat GuidanceThese MTB shoes are compatible with MTB pedal systems, which use cleats with SPD standard (2-bolt standard), e.g.: Shimano SPD, Time ATAC, CrankBrothers, CrankBrothers Race, Look MTB, Xtreme MTB, Wellgo MTB, Ritchey MTB.Features:Downhill/Enduro focused shoeDurable Ripstop fabric upperArmoured toe box with TPU reinforcements across upperErgonomic lace-up closure for an anatomical fit + instep Powerstrap closureX6 outsoleVibram XS EVO tread compound for secure feel on clip-in pedalsShock-absorbing EVA midsoleOutsole stiffness index 5Weight: 410 g2-bolt cleat compatible (cleats not supplied)Buy Fizik Footwear from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World's Largest Online Bike Store.
