Tallac (tuh-lak) uses a lightweight and breathable Cordura ® upper with a stitch-free and fully welded construction for durability. Tallac BOA ® has been updated with the PerformFitâ„¢ Wrap from the BOA ® Fit System—designed to improve power transfer and efficiency while providing a micro-adjustable, precision fit you can adjust on the fly. A supportive and vibration-dampening midsole keeps things feeling calm and collected on the bike while the reverse hex traction in the toe and heel of the outsole makes easy work when hiking becomes necessary.

Frequently asked questions
Can I adjust cleat placement easily?
Yes, the shoe features a 40 mm long cleat box with index markings. This extended length allows for greater adjustability and optimal cleat placement to fine-tune your riding position.
Does this shoe include integrated impact protection?
Yes, the Tallac Clip BOA® features D3O® technology to keep your feet safe on the trail. It includes:
- Integrated D3O® padding in the upper for top-of-foot protection against impacts.
- D3O® High Impact Zone Technology in the insole, which helps absorb shock and reduce rider fatigue during long or rough rides.
Are these shoes suitable for walking off the bike?
While the ClipGrip rubber outsole and reverse-hexagon tread provide excellent traction for short hike-a-bike sections, these shoes are engineered with a stiff RC PowerDrive nylon shank specifically for cycling performance. They are not recommended for casual walking or extended hiking, as the rigidity is designed to maximize power transfer to the pedals rather than comfort during walking.
Is the ClipGrip outsole hike-ready?
Yes, the ClipGrip rubber outsole is specifically engineered to ensure excellent traction for off-bike navigation, commonly referred to as ‘hike-a-bike,’ which is essential for Trail and Cross Country riding. The outsole is designed to remain highly functional even when you are not clipped in.
Key features that maximize secure footing include:
- Durable ClipGrip Rubber Compound: Provides reliable grip across various surfaces.
- Hexagon Tread Pattern: Offers stable contact and purchase.
- Reverse Hex Relief Pattern: Placed strategically on the toe and heel to maximize traction when scrambling, climbing, or descending challenging terrain.
Can I adjust the fit while I am riding?
Yes. The shoe utilizes the BOA® Fit System with the Li2 dial, which allows for quick, micro-adjustable, and multidirectional fit tuning on the fly without having to stop or remove your gloves.
