Wow, they're so fast! Slip them on, turn the Boa wheel and the narrow-cut shoe sits firmly on your foot.

The sole is slightly harder than my favourite Freerider Pro from flat shoe dominator FiveTen, but it's grippy and okay. Great: The Velcro strap allows the shoe to be adjusted even more snugly. The strap also came into its own for the Boa wheel, as the lashing wheel burst and the lacing slackened. Annoying. But the strap held the shoe securely on the foot and I was able to continue riding. Nobody knows how it could have happened. Nevertheless, I would personally buy the Freerider Pro because it's 40 euros cheaper.
