The torch 2.0 road shoes are all about comfortwell comfort & performance that is. Due to the materials road shoes often feel stiff & uncomfortable. We decided to address this annoyance head on though. To do so weve implemented a 100% mesh & tpu construction on the torch 2.0 that allows for more wiggle room in the toe box & a less constrictive sock-like feel. The upper is then paired with our medium-stiffness FACT carbon sole & a rubber heel & toe that provide the perfect degree of off-the-bike traction. For the closure we added a single lightweight boa ip 1 dial that features tool-free snap replacement capability while also providing simple on-the-fly micro-adjustments. Body geometry sole construction & footbeds are ergonomically designed & scientifically tested to boost power, increase efficiency, & reduce chance of injury by optimizing hip, knee, & foot alignment. Carbon sole with a 7.0 stiffness index is engineered to be moderately stiff, yet light with a rubber heel & toe for off-the-bike traction. Lightweight boa ip 1 dial closure for on-the-fly micro-adjustment, backed by the boa lifetime guarantee. Mesh & tpu upper for a supple fit. Three-bolt cleat pattern fits all major road pedals. Approximate weight: 235g (1/2 pair, size 42)
