Bont BLITZ : White / Black

Season:2015

Brand:BONT

Code:BTBLW

The Bont Blitz is Bont's newest addition to the range. Lighter and stiffer than the A-Two it replaces and than the entry level Riot that has seen so much success this season, it is constructed of 100% 3K carbon fibre and the chassis has been specifically designed to ensure maximum performance at low weight. Bont Cycling's proprietary thermo moldable resin ensures the fit customization of the Blitz.

The Blitz has a lower stack height than the Riot at just 3.6mm as opposed to 4.8mm and is 90g lighter for a pair. Like much of the range and the market as a whole, the Blitz features a BOA dial closure for even fit and consistent pressure across the top of the foot. This helps to avoid impeding return blood flow from the foot and the associated numbness.

BONT are an Australian company and have been doing things a little differently since 1975 when founder Inze Bont fiberglassed the back of his leather ice-skates for additional support. In 1986 BONT were the first company to commercially use Kevlar in their footwear and in 1989 became the first to use carbon fibre. BONT are innovative. We like that.

In 2007 BONT moved into the cycling market having been successfully creating medal winning shoes for Speed skaters for decades. In the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing BONT racked up 8 medals in the cycling events. Since then many world class cyclists have moved to BONT, including our own Mark Cavendish and Bradley Wiggins and many of the GB Track squad. The company are extremely proud of the quality of their product and if you read their website you'll notice that they don't like others in the industry selling you Carbon, Monocoque or anything else unless that is exactly what it is. Suffice to say that BONT are giving you a dictionary definition when it comes to their heat-moldable Carbon Monocoque, hand-made cycling shoes!

What makes BONT so special is the incredible stiffness they are able to build into their shoes and this stems from their use of in-house resins - something that BONT claim no-one else does. BONT have been developing resin technology for 36 years. The resins used in their shoes enable them to be heat-moldable repeatedly by the rider at relatively low temperatures. Usually this would be to the detriment of the structure of the shoe but BONT's rapid curing resin means that your shoes will harden quickly without compromising fit or comfort. Ultimately, you can put your shoes in the oven at 70oC for 20 minutes and then strap them on your feet, allow them to cool and have a shoe that is totally tailored to your foot.

Despite this stiffness they are remarkably comfortable thanks to the sensible shape of the Last and the relatively open toe-box. The last is an incredibly important part of the shoe, it is a replica of a foot that the cycling shoe is built around. Last makers do not make cycling shoe lasts, they only make walking shoe lasts, so perfecting a cycling specific last requires a great deal of expertise in functional biomechanics and ongoing research. Bont have been perfecting performance footwear lasts since 1975 and the process is ongoing; indeed Bont place more importance and thus place more effort into their 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. Simply put Bont make shoes for cycling, not walking.

In addition to having a shoe designed for the biomechanics of riding, the ability to repeatedly mold the shoe and 'work-out' (with the blunt end of a screwdriver) any areas that cause pressure or discomfort means that you will be able to perfect the fit if you don't get it right straight away or if your feet change. 

It is really important to stress here that most other manufacturers offer you a heat-moldable sole, what BONT offer is a heat-moldable CHASSIS so you are getting a far more tailored fit. Not only that but at a fraction of the price of many other heat-moldable shoes out there these represent real value for money and are ideal for the cyclist looking to improve and compete. They come complete with shoe bag to keep them in top condition. The Vaypor shoes are available in a Standard Width fit in sizes from 36 - 50 (including 4 half sizes) from stock.

The best way to tell your size is try them on but in our experience you will probably find that you need to up-size by half a size. If you would like to discuss your fit we are happy to guide you on sizing.

Technical Information

The chassis of the shoe is moldable which means all stiff areas of the shoe can be molded in a standard oven. You do not need to mold your shoes if they fit you straight out of the box. To mold your shoes, remove any cleats, laces or cleat mounting screws and innersole before molding. Failure to remove the innersole can result in it becoming deformed by the heat.

Pre heat the oven to 70o(160oF). Place the shoe in the oven for 20 minutes. Higher temperatures will void your warranty and may damage your shoe.

Caution: Do not place your feet in the hot shoes or you may burn your feet. Let them cool a little and test the shoe temperature with your hand before placing your feet in the shoes. Tighten the straps and allow to cool. If you have any lumps or bunions on your feet or if there are any areas causing discomfort, while the shoe is hot you can use the round end of a screwdriver to press out any part of the boot.

You can heat mold the shoes as many times as you like.
