Pearl Izumi's Men's Race Road V5 combines serious stiffness with superior comfort. The nylon sole is bolstered with a carbon mid-sole insert to provide top-of-the-line stiffness for instant power delivery to the pedals. Pearl Izumi's unique Bi-Directional Boa dials pull the laces from both sides to ensure equal tension across the top of the foot. A 3-layer bonded seamless upper eliminates hot spots and delivers incredible comfort.
