D.F.C. DOUBLE FLEX CONTROL SYSTEM

• The D.F.C. system features a PU frame attached to the boot with two lateral hidden screws positioned on the heel counter, at malleolus level. At the back of the boot, the system is equipped with two lugs that slide inside dedicated ‘safety lock’ pockets which allow a back flexibility up to 13 degrees, avoiding the overextension of the ankle joint to limit the risk of injury. The PU frame of the system is thin and shaped around the boot to offer a flat internal surface, which allows a good grip on the bike, and prevent from becoming caught on the bike while riding. D.F.C. System is engineered to also offer a superior level of protection in case of impact; the heel counter is designed to absorb impact energy and compression and it is equipped with rear and lateral slider to facilitate the natural sliding in case of a fall.

F.F.C. FASTEN FIT CONTROL (LACING SYSTEM)

• The internal fastening system features long-lasting laces joined to the boot lining and a newly designed padded tongue to offer an increased level of comfort. It ensures that the upper wraps the foot, providing maximum fit precision and sensitivity while riding. The Fasten Fit Control offers an adjustable fit according to the rider’s individual foot anatomy.

ORTHOLITE® FOOTBED

Experience the comfort of the footbeds made with OrthoLite® PU foam:

• Long-term cushioning: OrthoLite® foam compresses less than 5 % of its thickness over the lifetime of the footbed, so the cushioning, fit, comfort and performance never change.
• High level breathability: the open-cells of the OrthoLite® foam, allows air to circulate in and around the footbed, moving the moisture away and keeping the foot cooler and drier.
