 The Sidi Ergo 2 Carbon Lite Vernice 2011 are the natural evolution of the 2010 model. Not a brand new product, as essentially unchanged, but the 2011 version receives minor updates, natural development of a successful product, but also a company as Sidi, always careful to incorporate any message, big or small, that comes from its customers. The upper keeps the gloss and smooth surface finish (Vernice) and receives some minor updates in the provision of ventilation holes as well as a small redesign. The upper Vernice slips dirt and easy cleaning, which occurs with mild soap and water, while it is unwise to use alcohol or harsh detergents that would lose the shine to the upper. A number of the mesh panel, which again suffered a small evolution. New upper inner, softer and with a different texture of fabric. All very noticeable changes dictated by experience and one year of production. Various combinations graphics remain unchanged in dominant colours black, white, red, blue and white/red. The carbon sole, the most stringent ever, remained unchanged after the upgrade last year which saw them go down to the weight of 20 grams by using a different type of carbon from the aeronautics industry, which has allowed to obtain a stiffer soles and read on the market today. The sole is designed to accommodate the most common types of cleats and the ability to memorize the position of Look cleats, confirmed the well-printed set of references for the correct positioning of the same cleats. The rear heel is interchangeable, there is also a heel-toe in order to preserve the sole. The heel is reinforced and made of thermoformed material and is adjustable via two screws, so as to tighten the shoe to the heel and prevent unwanted movement of the bead. The closure was confirmed and given to the three straps, the first equipped with velcro fastenings Sidi, the second rotor fitted with a cap Sidi Tecno 2 System, and the third has a lock and ratchet straps and padded anatomically thermoformed, so to be distributed across the instep, the clamping force. Recall that the primer Sidi has the opportunity to be fully opened or a notch at a time, allowing precise adjustment even in the running. The insole of the shoe is anatomically. The shoes are available in sizes from 38 to 48, with half sizes available up to size 46.5. In size 42 have a weight of 310 grams per shoe.
