Additionally, you can easily wipe the surface clean of mud and grit.

Both dials are mounted on the tongue, although the plate they’re mounted on is split, giving just a little flex for added comfort. The dials pull the shoe closed evenly on both sides to avoid the creation of pressure points or hotspots.

Because it’s as light as it is technical, and as BikeRadar testifies, “You’ll be hard pushed to discover a shoe that feels as good when worn day in, day out and on long arduous rides.” Some other great features of the Genius 10 include vents at the toe and perforations in the fabric, to allow your feet to breathe, an upper made from stiff, eco-friendly synthetic leather and a roomier toe box than in previous versions. There is also an externally moulded heel cup to keep the foot anchored during climbs, not to mention grippy, replaceable pads at the heel and toe to make walking when off the bike that bit easier.
