Fizik Tempo R5 Powerstrap Road Cycling Shoes

The Fizik Tempo R5 Powerstrap is a versatile road bike shoe that is excellent on paved roads. It distinguishes itself from other road bike shoes due to the innovative Powerstrap velcro strap. Most velcro straps pull two sides of the shoe towards each other. The innovative Powerstrap of the Tempo R5 winds itself around the instep and side of the shoe. Due to the elastic ribbon, the shoe adjusts itself to the shape of your foot and pressure is divided equally over the foot. This ensures an optimal fit and very high wearing comfort.

The R5 nylon composite outsole provides a wonderful balance between comfort and stiffness. This outsole is reinforced with carbon, which improves power transmission to the pedals. Meanwhile the comfort of the shoe remains excellent, making the Fizik Tempo R5 Powerstrap suited for long distance use as well.

• Powerstrap: foot-wrapping Velcro closure designed for an enveloping fit
• R5 nylon composite outsole: delivers balance between comfort and pedalling efficiency
• R5 outsole – carbon reinforced nylon
• Approximate weight: 250g (size 42 - 1/2 pair)

Detailed explanation of sizing in mm
In order to help you, as best we can, to choose the right size shoe we have measured all the shoes ourselves. All that's left for you to do is measure your own foot length, and we'll tell you which shoe size per brand suits you best. Does your foot length in mm not appear on the relevant product's page? Then that particular shoe is not available in a size that suits your foot length.

You can easily measure your foot length using an A4 sheet of paper, placed on the floor against a wall. Stand with one foot on the piece of paper, with your heel against the wall. Draw a line above your big toe (or above the index toe if that is longer). Now mark your other foot on the paper in the same way. Measure both - the measurement of your longest foot is your foot length in mm's! Please note: some manufacturers have their own measuring system, and as a result what appears on the shoebox can deviate from what we have measured.

What shoe size you need can differ per brand. This is because certain brands wear larger or smaller. To help you get the perfect fit, we've also classified the shoes as narrow, average, or wide fit. Read all about it in our blog!
