Tecnica Zero G Tour Pro 2023

The Zero G Tour Pro from Tecnica features an overlap construction, providing a high level of downhill performance. The downside typically associated with this design is limited shaft rotation. However, Tecnica has managed to allow for a 55-degree rotation thanks to a very low-cut shell (lower boot) and large cutouts in the shaft.

The unique "double blocking mobility cuff," which locks the cuff at two points vertically at the same time, contributes not only additional stability but also to this significant shaft rotation. The resulting flex is rated at 130 by Tecnica, indicating a stiff boot.

All of this comes at a weight of just 1320 grams, making the boot feel light on ascents. The Zero G Tour Pro is ergonomically shaped, ensuring that the boot does not feel tight at all, even though it is built on a last with a 99-millimeter width. Additionally, the shell can expand very well over the partially perforated areas.

While a flex rating of 130 might sound rigid and stiff, the boot is anything but that. It features a very pleasant progressive flex (initially soft, then increasingly stiffer), which may not be entirely at 130 but is certainly stiff enough for the vast majority of riders.

Tecnica achieves the low weight through consistent optimization of materials. The thinly injected Grilamid, relatively thin liner, and magnesium buckles with wire loops contribute to this.

The Zero G Tour Pro is aimed at a wide range of riders due to its lightweight and superb performance. If the boot fits you, you can’t go wrong with it.
