Quality
Quality is without doubt one of the most important factors that we consider when buying bikes, parts, accessories or clothing. As you’d imagine it’s especially important when buying Shoes – Cycle. Let’s take at a look at the sort of things you can look at when trying to ascertain the quality of Mavic Cosmic Ultimate II SPD-SL Road Shoes 2018.
The first thing is material. Looking at what Mavic Cosmic Ultimate II SPD-SL Road Shoes 2018 is made of will give you a really good idea of the quality overall. Take a look at the specs above and you should be able to see the material. It’s then up to you to decide if it meets your expectation.
Similarly you’ll also want to spend some time looking at the features too. Again the table above, listing the features will give you a really good overview. However you should think about the sort of features that you’d expect when buying new Shoes – Cycle. It’s worth writing a list of the “must-have” features so that you don’t end up compromising and missing some important features, or alternatively end up buying an unnecessarily high specced product.
There’s also a lot of merit in checking out the brand of the product and looking at the various brands that are selling Shoes – Cycle. Brands like Mavic are of courses extremely well respected in the cycling community so you know you’re getting a fantastic product with them. But if you’re undecided on your product you should write up a list of brands that you’d be happy to buy. It’s a great way of filtering and narrowing down the number of products when you’re searching.
Next up you’ll want to think about the price and use that as a guide to set your expectations of the quality. If you’re buying the cheapest of the options in the Shoes – Cycle category you should probably expect it to not be of as good quality as the most expensive. It sounds obvious of course. But this is where you can get a bit clever and use your combination of features, specs, materials and other factors to work together to get a really good quality product at the best price. We often draw up a list of “must-haves” and use these as filters when shopping online so that you’re only seeing products that meet your criteria. You can then sort by Price>Low to get the best deals.

Do some research to understand how much roughly you can expect to pay for the sort of level of product that you’re looking for. Then match that to your own personal circumstance and how much you can afford to spend. This will really help you in narrowing down the right product for you.

- Description: Mavic Cosmic Ultimate II SPD-SL Road ShoesOften seen in the pro peloton, the Cosmic Ultimate II is built on performance. With a super light construction, it’s one of the lightest shoes on the market. Mavic’s lightest full carbon sole allows you to transfer every ounce of energy into power. Own your own piece of pro kit!Whether you’re climbing or sprinting, a stiff sole is key to power transfer. Mavic’s Energy Full Carbon SLR outsole is incredibly light and stiff. With a sole thickness of 5.5mm and a low stack height (7mm), your foot will be closer to the pedal, which results in optimal power transfer. 6mm or front/rear cleat adjustment allows you to achieve the perfect fit.The carbon doesn’t end there! A Carbon Energy Frame constructed of woven carbon fibre and a flexible polymer delivers maximum support. By providing maximum foothold, the frame stops your foot from moving about in the shoe.So often, performance means a comfort sacrifice. This cannot be said of the Cosmic Ultimate II. An Ergo Fit 3D Ortholite dual density insole provides excellent support and stability for the heel and arch. The Ergo 3D tongue cradles the instep and won’t bunch inside the shoe, like a traditional tongue can. Such is their comfort level, Mavic shoes have often been likened to slippers!With performance and comfort taken care of, only fit remains. Mavic’s Ergo Dial is a lightweight dial retention system, which allows highly customisable adjustments of 1mm at a time.Worn by the Condor Racing Team, we can expect to see much more of this shoe during the professional racing season.Features:Sizing Note: Snug fit, going up half a size from normal shoe size is suggestedOne of the lightest shoes available on the marketFull carbon outsole and reduced stack height for maximum power transferCarbon Energy Frame cradles the foot and prevents any movement within the shoeErgo Fit 3D Ortholite dual density insole provides excellent support and stabilityErgo Dial retention system allows you to achieve a highly customised fitCompatible with 3 bolt type cleatsWeight: 540g (pair, size 8.5)Buy Mavic Footwear from Chain Reaction Cycles, the World’s Largest Online Bike Store.
