Neat. I could see this being very useful for mountain biking too, since there are lots of moments when you have to "spin up" the pedals or rapidly put down power to clear obstacles. Custom made gear is really exciting. Thank you for the "lore" on these shoes.....

prices will not come down very much. The way these shoes are designed they can only be "bespoke" tailored, they must be made around one specific foot, no serial production possible - and therefore they will always be expensive

[@davidboonzaayer6832]

I use to use duct tape around my shoes heel and my ankle and strap it like I footy player around my lower ankle before races and mtns… did a really good time for my standard up mt buffalo and all the benefits Neil is saying I felt by the tape added. It’s a cheap way to see if you like or want to experience what it feels like use shoes like this. I might start doing it again as it feels great and efficient.

[@pierrex3226]

That's awesome. Super expensive, ofc, but I'm very familiar with 3d printing but their robot is the next level after the next level, and you've got to amortize that thing. Then it's got to take hours and hours of robot time, so you can only make one at a time. Then you've got to pay for the scan rigs at bike fitters'. And in materials costs alone, they probably spend several times more than your typical competition. And it's in California where everything costs an arm and leg in the first place. So I'm not buying a pair, but I'm not the target audience anyway. Will be interesting to see results over two years, because I don't think many shoe companies will start using 4 axis 3d printing robots anytime soon, and 5-10pc sprint increases should lead to a lot of wins. Then number of podiums should do the talking for them. Very nice innovation.

[@roadcyclingacademy]

Agreed on all counts. The robot looks insanely complex, and it apparently took quite a lot of development to get the carbon stranding to come out neatly, sit down and glue itself in place ready for the next pass in time. Complex stuff! - N

[@bikefitr]

@@roadcyclingacademy There was an insane amount of experimenting, testing, problem solving and innovating to resolve robotic print path issues.

[@the_danknight]

Was wondering about Neil's opinion on barefoot shoes vs arch support in conventional shoes, hopefully other brands start to mimic the minimalist form factor soon

[@roadcyclingacademy]

Barefoot shoes all the way if your foot is healthy enough to do its own thing. Some people's feet are beyond that stage and require major rehab before they can operate in barefoot shoes in my experience sadly. - N

[@rdx913]

I’m trying to figure out how it works. I find it interesting that Neill Stansbury says “stiffness and power transfer because of stiff soles is a load of rubbish, it’s a tiny spring and you get the energy back” in an earlier video about what to look for in a shoe and then claims that the Lores give great power transfer because of the dorsal (top of shoe) stiffness here (8:00) by effectively elongating the power stroke. If the former logic is true (re: spring return), why does that not apply to the dorsal aspect of other shoes?

[@richeeg3271]

What about your cleat position? It looks like your cleats are more forward. Which is fine if you're not heel dropping anymore, but it definitely contributes to better sprint, riding in a bunch etc.

[@matthewkramer8613]

These shoes seem very interesting to me.. I recently got some G8 insoles and this transformed my Sidi shoes into a more effective power riding my Xc mtb. I feel like my efficiency is so much better.. these shoes look even next level to even G8s. They look like biking custom ski boots. This type of efficiency almost feels like you have an extra gear, much like difference of riding clipped in vs standard peddles. Very cool!

[@bikefitr]

great analogies. Several levels above adding G8 insoles.

[@nadiabentuler9746]

Without wanting to read too much into a small sample size, there is a noticeable improvement in your outputs with Bront shoes along the intervals. Could it be that the intervals with the Lores somehow "teach" better core foot/heel dynamics that in turn improve your usual shoe outputs too ?

[@foodbymark]

question is, will they bring out a full white version... on a serious note, it is great to see real innovation in cycling shoe design.

[@roadcyclingacademy]

The white top/black bottom looks nice on the Lore2 images I reckon! - Neill

[@BikesKomsCRO]

Not really... I mean 99% of people won't ever spend the money to buy that and for generations we've managed with normal cycling shoes, find your brand and size and you should be good. As we always have been. This is overengineered.

[@Thebikewrench]

It will be interesting to see what the long term use will be for the cyclist. The foot is meant to be used in human gait, but in cycling the foot lacks feedback from metatarsals to the ankle, hence why arch support is important in cycling shoes. I wonder how limiting ankle movement/flexibility, will affect the cyclist (specifically the knee,) with limited hip mobility. On another note, these shoes seem to attempt mimic, what the Norwegian power pedal did back in the 90s.

[@bikefitr]

There is no limit in the ankle dorsiflexion with the LoreOne or LoreTwo. The LoreOne acts as a top down foot support. There is less of that in the LoreTwo, which does include arch support with a modular systems similar to G8.

[@DISCOhooch]

This shoe + Selle SMP saddle = combo wombo

[@PeterPutz82]

Um sorry guys but deeeeer, bare foot shoes hve been out for ages with flat sole, no arch, wide toe box. I've been waiting for a cycle shoe maker to make barefoot cycling shoes. After wearing barefoot shoes for a couple of years now, my cycle shoes feel so tight on the toes. Also wearing barefoot shoes freed up my ankle and now that has great ROM again. Time for Shimano etc to jump on board as the next big thing.

[@fiddleronthebike]

you did not understand the principle of this shoe...

[@Gabrielle4870]

Anteloper shoes as used by Dutch track sprinters are moulded around your feet but with carbon. Sounds like the same principles apply.

[@speciesofspaces]

If anyone knows of a comprehensive mid-foot position study then please do share. It seems with going wider, flatter and support from the top like shown here it would be best to find out how a true mid-foot position would help etc. I understand it would throw off the bike geometry a bit but it would still be super interesting.

[@Jon-Jon53]

Hi Neil, can you do some testing between your lakes and these Lore shoes showing pedal smoothness? I am making an assumption that these should increase you smoothness % a little?

[@tonykonvalin9959]

They do. Check their site.

[@TheYeoYo]

I've literally theorized about this for a year. I ride with barefoot minimalist shoes for awhile. Over time I've found that tightening higher up on the laces, closer to the ankle works better. The only downside is the flexibility of all minimalist shoes. You are really forced to strengthen your foot to pedal with minimalist barefoot shoes. I always wondered what it would be like to have a rigid sole.

[@bobfoster687]

More power because not heel dropping? More calf engagement?

[@rivingtonandstanton]

Appears to function a bit like a ski boot in that it’s rigid all around.

Personally, when I order Narrow Bonts and mould the front and the heel cup I reckon I'm at least half way if not further in achieving the same. I just use the flat factory sole. At least Neill is honest but where does the whole arch support for perception etc fit in now? It sounds like it really is just to make up for ill fitting shoes?

[@bertr5015]

Does Neil have any thoughts on the Mid vs Low cut they are offering?

Sadly the toe box doesn't look roomy enough for me. I was in Lake CX403 wide but then switched to Vaypor S wide, because my feet are used to wide toeboxes in normal shoes but sadly most cycling shoes want to squish your toes together in a shape which should probably look a bit aerodynamic or slim and light weight.

Looking forward to people complaining about the high price. The way I see it: they are not meant to be accessibly priced, and they can't be due to how much they likely cost to make. This shoe is for professionals and semi-professionals where it may actually have an impact on results and therefore money generation, thus a justified purchase. Complaining about these being too expensive is like complaining about the price of a McLaren; not built for the average consumer.

So replacing the structure of the foot with a carbon external prosthetic - this explains the lack of an arch support, or the need for it. Much like the new carbon plate running shoes, the gains are made by removing losses inherent in the human body. There are gains to be made, the engineer in me is all about efficiency in power transfer, but frustrated bike fitter in me hates this idea. In a world where 0.1% of the riders out there can make use of aero advantages of new bikes, 60% of the bikes come with proprietary stems and internal brake routing, making fitting a royal pain.

Of course there is a bunch of variance per model within the range, but most Bonts are in the neighborhood of 230-260g (460-520g/pair) at this size vs 300g (600g/pair as Neil says) for the LoreOne. Thus the weight difference per shoe is roughly speaking 40-70g, which is negligible in terms of performance, and especially given higher efficiency and force transfer.
