Description:

A true chameleon of all-terrain, the boots Sidi Crossfire is in turn cross-specific, but also the supermoto enduro now thanks to its interchangeable soles SRS. We have tested several months.


Although before going to Maser, head Sidi to visit their factory in Italy (to be catapulted to the other side of the Alps is here ), we had floor there are now almost a year a pair of Crossfire. Screw-on feet crowned world, Italian is above all and for our pleasure, fine and flexible.

A SLIPPER ON EARTH WITHOUT LINER

That way since the Grand Prix came in the late 60s, the Crossfire and Flex can facilitate the movement of the foot in the boot without overlooking safety.

Without using an inner liner as do its rivals high-end, the Sidi offers a feeling of comfort not only immediate but also impressive as I have never had the opportunity to test!

No need to break or time to adapt, the boot seems to be made at your feet … the audited 1970 grams (for boot configuration SM ) will make you forget whatever your discipline.

The 4 adjustable closures enough to lock and unlock without least struggle. Once in the closed position no surprises with fasteners that open. Malin, there is even a pad TPU support to protect the bottom closure, however, if your foot were to catch an obstacle.

Finally, the rider will be seduced by an inner sealing lip which takes its role seriously and the internal elastic trim adorned with a large scratch for optimal connection with your or your pants Combard TT.

MADE IN ITALY

One of the big advantages of the Crossfire is the ability to change number of pieces when they are worn.

SRS of the sole with a removable flat screwdriver (screw-quarter turn) via fasteners or the various protections and other TPU pad, almost everything can be renewed by the new.

The other advantage is a quality hand assembly of high quality materials which admits of no criticism. Foam backing for comfort, mesh fabric, antibacterial treatment … well no complaints about the choice made by Sidi. If more ventilation would have been less sweaty and track riding.

Side protection nothing wrong with the presence of different pieces of thermoplastic polyurethane assembled together as an armor literally circling your feet without making shackles and allows enough freedom for your feet to be forgotten. Need I say more?

GO
Good grip of the bike with the rubber well made, the Italian boot is a valuable ally that offers finesse and feeling among both the speed of controlling the brake back.

Whatever the type of sole, the feeling at the foot pegs and selectors is imperial. Note about the same protections that stop sufficiently different projections of stones or branches aggressive returns.

While blame him? Really not much. Sidi has reworked its system of sole SRS now quarter-turn screws and even if they are easier and faster to handle than the previous ones, you should arm yourself with a screwdriver worthy of the name to integrate properly.

Once one has understood the need to operate in the triangle to facilitate the transplant, the renewal will be done without difficulty. But again this is not a defect … No, in addition to a lack of ventilation, it is currently the star.
