Conclusion Race on the bottom, tour on the top: The stiff sole puts a lot of power on the pedals, but only rolls moderately. The soft and thickly padded upper material ensures comfort. The ratchet and quick lacing do not optimally secure the foot. Good toe protection and dirt deflector on the ankle.

Stefan Frey is from Lower Bavaria and loves the mossy, loamy trails of the Bavarian Forest as much as the rugged rock of the Dolomites. For technical descents, he is prepared to tackle almost any ascent - under his own steam. As an accessories specialist, he is the first port of call for questions about equipment and add-on parts, while as head of copywriting he sweeps the language crumbs from the pages of the BIKE print editions.
