Technology:
Durolite:
- Strength to weight ratio´s have always played an important part in Bont cycling shoe design as all materials considered and developed for products within the Bont range must comply to strict standards. Durolite has been developed and chosen for the Helix upper for its extremely durable nature and light weight.
Retention System:
- Continuous wiring spreads the load for a secure hold without localised pressure points.
Cable Routing:
- Cable routing wraps around and under the rigid carbon chassis for a wide, even anchor point.
Single Boa:
- The single Boa dial simplifies operation for quick and easy on-the-fly adjustments .
Unidirectional Carbon Chassis™:
- The Helix continues with its unidirectional monocoque chassis in matt finish and is upgraded with an improved grid to assist cleat adjustment.
TPU Toe Protector:
- The toe protector not only protects the front area of the shoe from wheel rub and impact, but also houses ventilation holes for improving airflow through the shoe.
Ventilation:
- The Helix is highly ventilated with integrated air vents on the front bumper providing direct airflow into the shoe along with perforated upper and tongue to maximise breathability.
Anti Stretch:
- Between the outer leather and the liner we add a material that is proprietary to Bont to stop the cycling shoe from stretching over time. This material has similar strength characteristics to Kevlar. The material is stitched to the outer leather and bonded to the liner so it can never move or be removed, it becomes part of the cycling shoes structure. This layer assits in pedalling efficiency by maintaining a supportive structure over the top of the foot in the upward part of the pedal stroke.
Last Design:
- A last is a replica of a foot that the cycling shoe is built around. Last makers do not make cycling shoe lasts, they only make shoe lasts so perfecting a cycling shoe last requires a great deal of expertise in functional biomechanics and ongoing research. At Bont, we have been perfecting our performance footwear lasts since 1975 and the process is ongoing. We believe we place more importance and thus place more effort into our last than any other cycling shoe brand and it is the reason that Bont cycling shoes continue to be a leader in providing the most functional and correct anatomical support to cyclists than any other brand on the market. Our motto in terms of cycling shoe fit is simple, ´´We make shoes for cycling, not walking.
Carbon Fiber:
- Bont carbon fiber is sourced exclusively from the world´s #1 carbon manufacturer, Toray of Japan. The base of the Helix is made by hand utilizing uni-directional carbon fiber which is embedded with epoxy thermo setting resin. The fibers are hand laid in the matrix according to the strain they will have to bear. The Helix utilizes unidirectional carbon fiber allowing Bont to create a performance cycling shoe with very specific strength characteristics based on stress points in cycling. As unidirectional carbon absorbs less resin then cross weave fibers, it also assists in the weight reduction of the cycling shoes.
Padding:
- The Helix utilises closed cell memory foam that will not retain water assisting in maintaining a lighter shoe during wet conditions as well as ensuring sweat which can begin to break down the durability of the shoe is not absorbed.
Medial Longitudinal Arch Support:
- Structural medial longitudinal arch support is provided in all models to stop over pronation of feet.Over pronation is one of the main contributors to incorrect tracking of knees during a cyclists pedaling phase due to internal rotation of tibia and femur. This can result in knee injuries.In addition, the rotation of tibia/femur can cause the pelvis to tilt resulting in lower back strain.
Anatomical Forefoot Shape:
- Conventional cycling shoes offer a “dress shoe” type shaping. Although highly aesthetic this will cause the toes along with the metatarsals to be overly constricted, compressing the nerves between the metatarsals which often results in the common ´´hot foot´´ sensation.Bont cycling shoes anatomical shaping allows the foot to function in its most efficient and anatomically correct position. The foot is supported in its endeavour to relax through the metatarsal joints allowing the pedalling force to be spread across the greatest possible surface area.
Anatomical Heel Cup:
- The anatomical heel cup shaping of Bont cycling shoes provides increased stability during the pull through stage of pedaling stroke and up stroke. This stabilization is achieved without any mechanical operation or over tightening of straps/laces allowing for increased comfort and blood circulation.
Lateral Forefoot Support:
- Bont’s lateral forefoot support ensures neutral positioning of the forefoot and alleviates common issues associated with over pronation and supination. These issues often result in incorrect tracking of knees causing injuries along with hip and lower back pain.

Once Bont, always Bont

This is my 7th pair of Bonts. I used to wear Bont Riots but this time i went up in the Bont hiërarchie. These Helix are stoffer than Riots (which i've always been feeling that they're already stiff) I love the one Boa closure and it works perfect. Some ppl complain about the lace tunnel but i don't feel it. I can sprint, push hard, pulling and pushing but thé shoesfeels great. Personaly i still like thé Riots but these Helix hot my attention now. For me there are no beter Cycling shoes than Bonts.

The Japanese size is 25.5, but is the US notation 40.5?
Answer of Stephan
At Bont Helix 40,5 is 25,0 cm, for 25,5 it is EU 41 or US 7.5. https://cache.tradeinn.com/images/pdf/cuadro_tallas/eng_bont_size_shoes.pdf
