Lake MX242-X

The MX242 is the result of all our experience, advanced materials, and shoe manufacturing techniques, designed to provide the best fitting solution for hard-to-fit foot types. Made with a thermoformable heel cap and a specially designed upper that offers enough adjustment options to accommodate cyclists with hallux valgus, deformities, narrow or wide feet, or high or low arches. The separate panels allow for a refined fit and relieve sensitive and painful areas of the feet.

Shape: Equipped with a wider toe box and a narrower heel than the Comfort last, with an overall slightly increased volume compared to the Sport last. Exceptionally secure for intense rides with enough space in the toe box to avoid pressure points when climbing or walking. Designed for performance and competition.

Outsole: Lake Competition sole, 100% carbon fiber, with genuine Mountain Competition rubber outsole that provides comprehensive protection and ground contact.

Lining: Abrasion-resistant Helcor leather, vegetable-tanned Ecco leather, and Nufoam lining with carbon fiber support panels that help ensure a secure fit while providing stability in the foot. The abrasion-resistant Helcor leather is specifically designed to be extremely durable against friction, scratches, and abrasions. The upper is segmented into 6 independent zones to allow for one of the most flexible fits that can accommodate narrow or wide feet as well as feet with high or low arches. The moldable heel hold doubles the grip of the heel for a secure fit.

Closure: BOA® Fit System Li2 rotary closures. The Li2 rotary closure is the most advanced platform in cycling, offering a precise and micro-adjustable fit in both directions, as well as high abrasion protection.
