Bont Riot Road+ Cycling Shoe (BOA)

Heat Moldable

The Riot+ feature a heat-moldable chassis thanks to Bont Cycling’s proprietary resin – a result of 36 years in the making. The resin is extremely stiff but pliable at relatively low temperatures, allowing you to make small changes to fit, not size, unlike no other cycling shoe available. This ensures comfort and smooth power transfer no matter how far or fast you ride. You can heat mold the shoes using Bont Cycling’s specific instructions as many times as you like in order to get the perfect fit.

"We make shoes for cycling, not walking"

A last is a replica of a foot that the cycling shoe is built around. Traditional last makers do not make cycling shoe lasts, they only make shoe lasts designed for everyday walking shoes. Surprisingly, the majority of other brands still use a traditional dress shoe last when building their cycling shoes. Bont Cycling, on the other hand, has been perfecting its performance footwear lasts since 1975 and the process is ongoing. This is why they believe Bont Cycling shoes continue to be the leader in providing the most functional and anatomically correct support to cyclists. Their motto in terms of cycling shoe fit is simple, "We make shoes for cycling, not walking."

Carbon Composite Construction

The carbon composite construction of the Riot+ has been specifically designed to ensure incredible power transfer at a remarkably low weight. The composite bathtub style construction of the chassis has been strengthened with the inclusion of carbon across high-stress areas. The carbon is sandwiched between layers of fiberglass to maximize strength while also enhancing long-term durability.

BOA Fit System

Thanks to the combination of the single-dial BOA L6 Fit System with a hook-and-loop Velcro strap on the forefoot, you can get a comfortable fit and make minor adjustments on the go. The closures have been configured to distribute pressure evenly across the foot, minimizing 'hot spots.' This precise level of fit perfectly complements the heat-moldable upper. 

Medial Longitudinal Arch Support

Overpronation is one of the main contributors to incorrect tracking of knees during a cyclist's pedaling phase - due to internal rotation of the tibia and femur. This can result in knee injuries. In addition, the rotation of the tibia/femur can cause the pelvis to tilt resulting in lower back strain. Structural medial longitudinal arch support is provided in the Riot+ to stop over pronation of feet. This is also supported by Bont Cycling’s lateral forefoot support.
