Soft Instep Closure System
The wide, anatomical and padded strap has been reduced and coupled to soft, thermo-formed material increasing comfort and performance. It distributes pressure evenly over the arch area, adjustable from both sides for perfect centering. The system eliminates the need for the High Instep Extender. Used with SL and Caliper buckle straps. Serviceable and replaceable.
Tecno II System
Tecno II buckle uses monofilament line and a fine-tooth ratchet for smooth adjustment and even pressure distribution Allows frontal micrometric closure and adapts the upper of the shoe to the shape of the foot for a customised fit. The Tecno II system is now smaller and can be replaced more easily. Serviceable and replaceable.
Caliper Buckle
The micrometric closure called Caliper buckle is regulated by lifting the central buckle. In order to completely open, lift together both side buckles, while to slightly loosen the closure during the race the central clip must be lifted.
Adjustable Heel Retention Device
New technology for the heel cup system. The adjustable heel retention device reinforces the top of the heel cup and improves fit by closing the back of the shoe more securely around the rider’s ankle. The heel retention device tightens the top of the heel cup so that it doesn’t slip during steep climbs or sprints. It can be adjusted with two small screws that work independently from each other. For a custom adjustment turn the screw towards the + sign to tighten the heel retention device and towards the – sign to open it
Heel Cup System (HCS)
For cyclists with a thin ankle Sidi has thought of, created and patented a mechanism that tightens the top of the heel cup so that it doesn’t slip during steep climbs or sprints. Made in thermoplastic it can be easily replaced or removed, just remove the black buttom and unscrew the screw.
Sl Buckle
Allows locking in two different ways: by taking up a number of clicks with one sweep of the lever, or engaging half click at a time for a truly micrometric adjustment. The two red flaps may be pressed together for complete unlocking or alternately to slightly loosen the shoe during performance
Hight Security Velcro®
High security Velcro straps with integrated locking polymer teeth , that engage onto each other when the strap is closed. This feature makes the closure more secure and the strap becomes unmoveable.
Sidi Heel
The reinforced heel keeps the foot in position and avoids the shoe being deformed by extreme performance or prolonged pressure.
