The Chronos Aero Long Distance Cycling Shoe Gives You Wings
Experience unmatched comfort, optimal power transmission, and minimal air resistance with this innovative cycling shoe designed for triathletes. The Chronos Aero is engineered to elevate your performance and support your efforts on the road.
An Aerodynamic Design with Measurable Gains
Aerodynamics matter most when riding solo and at higher speeds. This shoe uses a single dial-lock fastening system, covered by a smooth lace shield that closes with a zipper. By reducing surface texture and airflow disturbance around the instep, drag is lowered compared to conventional closure systems. Wind-tunnel and on-road testing show small but consistent aerodynamic improvements, with the exact benefit depending on factors such as yaw angle, foot position, speed, and the shoe used for comparison.
Comfortable to Put On, Take Off, and Wear, Even in the Rain
Crafted from a single piece, the shoe transitions smoothly from a hard carbon shell to softer upper sections, ensuring comfort and ease of wear. The carbon shell includes drainage holes to prevent water accumulation, while the upper is made from lightweight, sustainable, and anti-bacterial microfiber leather.
An Efficient Pedal Stroke Without Fastening Your Shoes
Designed for seamless transitions, this shoe allows for power transfer to your pedals immediately, even if not fully fastened. The easily heat-moldable carbon shell wraps snugly around your foot, optimizing each pedal stroke for maximum efficiency, especially during high power transfers and accelerations.
A Stiff Carbon Shell Saving You Energy for the Run
The solid carbon shell-sole provides exceptional support and stabilization for your entire foot, particularly your heel bone. Its unique shell-like shape helps relieve tension in your calves, allowing you to utilize your hips and thighs for pedaling. This strategic design conserves energy for your run, giving you an advantage when it matters most.
The Advantages in Short:
- Aerodynamic design with measurable gains thanks to a smooth shoe surface and lower body position
- Improved power transfer, even with shoes that are not fully fastened
- Energized legs for the run due to optimal support and stabilization while cycling
Note:
The current version of this product features an improved heel strap: instead of the loop shown on the outside in the product images, an inner webbing strap has been added. This change ensures the shoes stay in a better horizontal position when attached to the bike with elastic bands for a fast transition (flying mount). This is a deliberate product improvement – please note that the delivered item may differ from the images shown in this detail.
