Market: Solestar, the specialist for cycling shoe insoles, is expanding its product range: With the new Solestar Kontrol MTB, there is now an insole that ideally meets the special requirements for connecting foot and pedal in mountain biking.
In mountain biking, even more than in other cycling disciplines, the contact points between athlete and material determine comfort or pain, increase in performance or loss of strength. Solestar Kontrol MTB cycling shoe insoles provide every mountain biker with the necessary comfort. Be it on strenuous Transalp stages or trail surfing in the bike park. In order to absorb the stress of jumps as well as root and stone passages, there is a special layer between the sole core and the upper material, which cushions the foot under stress. In the case of discharge, the material is returned immediately.
These properties guarantee maximum comfort and at the same time improved control of the bike. The stiff core of the Black Fiber sole also provides direct feedback, which allows the bike to be controlled even more precisely.
I've had the Kontrol MTB in my Teva Pivot shoe for the past few months and was quite skeptical at first. Whether a sole provides the decisive tenth in the fight against time? Even now, after several four-cross races and enduro rides, I can't give a specific answer to that question. But one thing is certain: the insole, which is quite cheap at 99 euros, offers above all a firmer and more secure footing. By adapting the sole to your own shoe, it fits like a glove in the treads and ensures a comfortable fit without pressure exercise. The hook area is reinforced, absorbs shocks perfectly and convinces with good cushioning.
The Solestar Kontrol MTB are now available from specialist retailers. Solestar also offers its customers a generous satisfaction guarantee: If the customer is not 100% satisfied, they can return their deposits within 6 weeks of purchase and get their money back.
