Sidi Genius 6.6 Carbon Lite Mega 2012 Shoes

The SiDi Genius 6.6 Carbon Lite was developed with professional riders to suit the varying needs of all the world's top cyclists.

Carbon Lite Sole SiDi introduces, for the first time in a cycling shoe, a material thought and developed for the aerospace and aviation fields.This “structural expanse core” material, being wear resistant, guarantees a longer life to the sole keeping its initial mechanical features. Different kinds of materials are formed in layers to make a “unique handmade sole”. Carbon Lite Sole has been thought and developed using a mix of innovative composite materials which maximizes the stress resistance of the sole but making it lighter.

Soft Instep 2 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.

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.

Velcro Security System

High security Velcro with integrated locking polymer teeth that engage onto each other when the strap is closed. This feature makes the closure more secure and the Velcro becomes unmoveable.

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.

Replaceable Heel Cup

A replaceable spare part that prolongs shoe life way past that of the competition.
