Frequently asked questions
Does the BOA system offer precision fit?
Yes, the fit is highly precise and adjustable, which is a key feature of the Women’s Hellion Clip BOA®. The BOA® Fit System is engineered for performance and includes:
- The BOA® Li2 dial, which provides multidirectional micro-adjustment allowing you to fine-tune the fit quickly, even mid-ride.
- The PerformFit™ Wrap that works in conjunction with the system to ensure a secure, locked-in feel.
This level of precision is crucial for maximizing power transfer and improving efficiency during aggressive Trail and All-Mountain riding.
Does the shoe allow for easy cleat placement?

Can I use these for hike-a-bike sections?
Yes, these shoes are designed for excellent hike-ability. The outsole features a reverse hex relief pattern on both the toe and heel, which is specifically engineered to provide reliable traction when you need to dismount and walk on rough, steep terrain.
