We've found them to be long-lasting and perform well throughout their lifetime.Ĭonstructed around a synthetic mesh and TPU upper combined with a nylon composite Bronze Series sole, the Circuits come with a stiffness rating of seven out of 14, lending themselves well to more everyday riding where some flex and comfort is needed.
SILVERSTACK VS SHOTPUT FULL
Read the Specialized S-Works Torch review to get the full results of our testing, or see our head-to-head between the S-Works Torch vs the S-Works Ares.Īt the more affordable end of the scale, the Bontrager Circuit road shoe delivers high-performance at a great price, looks good, feels comfortable, and is compatible with both three- or two-bolt cleats. But we felt the retention system used worked like a dream, allowing precise tweaks to really fine-tune the fit. The one potential sticking point could have been the use of Boa S3 dials instead of the Li2 configuration – which is seen on the Rapha Pro Team Powerweave, above, and is designed to offer greater levels of adjustment. This focus on finery has not diminished the power transfer, which is exceptional, and they also boast impressive ventilation. The understated looks really hit the mark and the levels of support they offer around the midfoot and heel in particular, thanks in part to custom footbeds, is second to none.
And, boy, does it manage to deliver on this brief to immediately place them among the best cycling shoes we've tested. A replacement for the Works 7 road shoe, the focus is on comfort – but without compromising on performance.
The S-Works Torch is the latest edition to the portfolio of shoes from Specialized's premium brand.
