Overview The Shimano SH-RC702’s are Shimano’s newly-designed competition road shoe, with inspiration drawn from their S-PHYRE race collection. The synthetic leather upper features a wraparound design to minimize empty space and excess volume, for improved comfort and pedaling efficiency. The carbon fiber sole is rated 10/12 on Shimano’s stiffness scale, so nearly every watt of output is transferred to the pedals. Shimano’s advanced Dynalast technology, dual L6 BOA dials, a stabilized heel and expanded cleat adjustment all combine to make one of the most comfortable competition-worthy road shoes on the market. The RC702 is ready for competition and focused on comfort, whether your rides take you to a local criterium race or a long distance solo ride. Integrated seamless midsole and upper construction set a new level of fit, stability and lightweight performance. Surround wrapping upper structure reduces overlap and provides a glove-like fit. Ultra-rigid hollow carbon midsole efficiently vents air and drains water. Supple high-density synthetic leather with perforation and lightweight mesh/TPU combination bring superior fit and comfort. Dual independent BOA® L6 dials allow quick, micro tension adjustments. Adjustable powerzone lace guide securely holds forefoot. SHIMANO DYNALAST promotes smoother pedaling and more efficient power transfer.
