Cervelo TestTeam to Ride Bont Cycling Shoes in 2010

Bont Cycling has signed an agreement with Cervelo TestTeam to become Cervelo TestTeam partner and sponsor.

Bont Cycling has signed an agreement with Cervelo TestTeam to become Cervelo TestTeam partner and sponsor.

"Bont Cycling is proud and excited to become an official partner of Cervélo TestTeam," said Steven Nemeth, Chief Executive Officer of Bont Cycling commented. Nemeth added "Our objective is to develop the best possible cycling shoe providing both the competitive and enthusiast cyclist with a cycling shoe offering true anatomical fit and comfort combined with unparalleled performance."

 "I first heard about Bont cycling shoes from other riders who said they were really good," Cervelo TestTeam legend sprinter Thor Hushovd commented. Hushovd added "I´m a sprinter and need stiff shoes, so I wanted to try the stiffest shoes on the market. Then I ended up with the Bont. The initial fit of the shoes was not perfect, but as the whole shoe can be heat moulded we easily shaped them to my personal foot's shape and they are now 100%. Now all my effort comes down to the pedal, and I don't lose any watts because this shoe - doesn't move. Another big difference from other brands is that when you first put them on, you don´t have to tighten them, either before a sprint, or if they get wet! I'm looking forward to my first sprint with Bont!"

"We're very excited to start a partnership with Bont Cycling. They have a very innovative production technique that creates a light, stiff and comfortable shoe," Gerard Vroomen, Cervélo co-founder commented about the new partnership.

Bont cycling shoes utilize a true monocoque construction for their cycling shoes. Bont cycling shoes are made from the inside out with each layer of carbon hand-laid according to stress point and the upper base laminated to the carbon chassis with an epoxy resin. According to a Bont Cycling spokesperson this process provides a unique one piece anatomical fit.
