Shimano RC9 SPD-SL S-Phyre Road Shoes (RC903)

Shimano RC9 SPD-SL S-Phyre Road Shoes (RC903)

With an improved upper making them more supportive, lighter and even more comfortable than ever, the Shimano RC9 SPD-SL S-Phyre Road Shoes (RC903) deliver incredible performance for the competitive cyclist. 

Stiff. Light. Fast.

For those of you seeking a competitive edge, the RC9 SPD-SL S-Phyre Road Shoes (RC903) deliver race-proven and race-winning performance. While you may not have the raw power of Mathieu van der Poel, the S-Phyre feature a super-stiff carbon sole, delivering uncompromised power transfer to propel you forward with unrivalled efficiency. Thanks to a redesign of the fit and improved fabrics, they’re now lighter than ever and more comfortable too.

Shimano Dynalast Technology

The RC9s continue with Shimano’s Dynalast design ethos. A 360-degree surround upper hugs the foot, offering a stable pedalling platform for efficient power transfer throughout your pedal stroke. It also sees an optimized toe-spring section that ensures efficient and powerful pedalling with a reduction in foot fatigue over long distances. The toe box shape has also benefited from further refinement and the improved design now offers comfort to a wider range of foot shapes.

To the heel, an anti-twist heel cup and glass-fibre reinforced heel stabiliser work seamlessly together to resist flex and instability during your higher power output efforts.

Dual BOA® Li2 dials

Two BOA® Li2 dials provide the ultimate in customisable fit. Micro-adjustment for both tightening and loosening ensure you get the fit just as you want it every time you ride. And as feet swell in the heat or you want to tighten up for a sprint, you can make quick adjustments even when pressing on the pedals.

The Li2 dials also benefit from an improved construction to aid durability while also being lower profile to enhance aerodynamics.
