Sidi Men's Crampons

Product Information

If you need convincing of the supremacy of Sidi’s offering, during any Grand Tour you’ll find a mass of Sidi shoes within the peloton, and likely see them displayed on the podium at the end of a number of stages. In fact, the victors of the last two editions of the Giro d’Italia collected their medals in Milan shod in Sidi. The Genius 10 is a very good shoe to spend a few hours on the bike with. Some riders will be put off that it doesn't have a 'full' carbon sole at this price point (it has a nylon sole injected with carbon) but the stiffness is comparable to that of shoes at a similar price point. It's also good to see that it doesn't suffer from being overly tall like cheaper nylon soles tend to be, so it keeps your foot closer to the pedal for better efficiency.

Getting the right fit is also essential to road riding performance and here you’ll find the Soft Instep Closure 4 system and Techno 3 dials create the perfect combination to get it just right. The Instep Closure 4 system features a wide, EVA thermo-formed padded strap which spreads pressure evenly over the instep for optimal comfort levels. Adjustment is then available on both sides of the foot to guarantee you can effortlessly dial in comfort and foot-hold to precisely how you like it, even on the trail. Meanwhile, the lower dial allows for precise adjustment across the toe box for the perfect fit every time you ride. No fuss. Just twist and go. ultimately increases power transfer.

Where it wins out is in the flexibility around the outside edges of the sole. Often a very stiff shoe can become uncomfortable and create hot spots but I experienced no such issues with the Genius 10. It is a bit hefty compared to some and this can be noticeable on a really long day but the upside is that this weight equals durability. Now we come to the feature that really sets the Wire 2 apart, its incredible levels of ventilation. These are provided by the breathable, hole-punched TechPro microfibre upper, the ventilated heel cup and the Vent Carbon Sole, with its air channels, heels vents and adjustable vent at the toe. An externally moulded heel cup is included to offer protection and assist with your climbing, as is a replaceable grippy insert in the heel, designed to aid you with walking. There’s also a double-layered panel over the heel and toe sections and a rubber section on top of the ankle, to help keep your foot firmly anchored during your most powerful pedal strokes. On top of the fact that it's made of full carbon, this sole is carefully shaped to allow better power transmission that ever before. There’s no fear that extra stiffness will mean a drop in pedalling comfort either, since there’s a fitted insole to cushion your foot.
