The gravel shoes by Shimano are the new talk of the town. Although these were just recently updated, Shimano has yet again upped them again with a really neat finish along with a reinvigorated look! The shoes may be a special edition, but their price has not changed at all.
Shimano has not gone cheap with the material for making these “Out of the world” designed shoes. They host a special BOA li2 dial along with an upper breathable synthetic leather layer. The stiff carbon composite sole is perfect for riding on the roughest gravel tracks. The outsole is scratch-resistant so you don’t have to worry about the design fading out any time soon.
The shoes fit perfectly around the toes with their toebox fit but the most eye-catching feature of these shoes is their design. The tropical leaves graphic printed on them gives such a refined feeling, making you feel all ready for some serious summer riding.
The shoes weigh only 268 grams (I tried size 42) and will cost only $275! You can either purchase them through a dealer or buy them online. These shoes will definitely last you longer than just a couple of years! Don’t believe us? Check out this review:
To complete the tropical look, Lazer has rolled out its own edition of tropical-printed helmets. The Strada KinetiCore gravel/road helmet is perfect to go with the RX8. These helmets have received 5-star ratings all thanks to the Lazer’s new KinetiCor rotational impact system.
It not only makes these helmets 6% lighter than MIPS+Blade but also makes them 1.3% more aerodynamic than MIP+Blade. Because instead of adding a second layer to the helmet the system is installed inside the EPS foam.
Along with the added benefit of being more aerodynamic and lighter, the helmet is also 1% better at cooling than MIPS+Blade. Available in all four sizes (S, M, L, XL) this helmet can be yours for just $109.99. You can either shop it online or get yourself a pair from a dealer.
