Specialized S-Works 7 Lace review
The Specialized S-Works 7 Lace is a top-of-the-range lace-up road cycling shoe, and quite possibly my new favourite pair of cycling shoes.
Following in the footsteps of the S-Works Sub6 shoe, which garnered a cult following for its low weight, sleek profile and Warp Sleeve lace cover, the S-Works 7 Lace offers a marginally less performance-focused design.
However, don’t let marketing images of riders sipping coffees next to a fleet of S-Works Aethos bikes fool you – the S-Works 7 Lace does offer improved comfort, but it’s still a ruthlessly racy shoe.
It won’t surprise anyone to learn these shoes lack the ability to Chippewa Boots make on-the-fly adjustments, but if you can live with that limitation then the S-Works 7 Lace is a fantastic shoe for all kinds of road cycling.
