BOA® Technology announces the new Li2 dial platform, set to debut on cycling footwear, bringing a smaller, more durable and sustainable dial to market. Li2 offers a sleek, low-profile design, and maintains the precise, incremental micro-adjustability BOA is known for. Launching on road, gravel, and mountain bike footwear, look for premium product with Li2 from Fizik, Scott, Rapha, Gaerne, Lake and DMT this fall, and Bontrager, Giro, Louis Garneau and Specialized in 2021.
Li2 is the ultimate in fast, effortless, precision fit. The lightweight and low-profile dial platform offers unprecedented durability against impact, abrasion, and contaminants such as dirt and debris. Compact in size but packed with power, Li2 offers benefits designed to meet the needs of cyclists at every touchpoint during a ride. Multidirectional tightening and loosening allows for incremental adjustment to accommodate foot swelling on long rides, or a tighter fit for steep climbs and sprints. Aligned with BOA’s larger sustainability initiatives to reduce its carbon footprint both internally and within its manufacturing processes, Li2 was designed to reuse and reduce material waste.
Li2 is compatible with BOA’s lightweight and strong TX4 soft lace, is available in three dial profiles to meet varying aesthetic needs, and accommodates dual-dial and single-dial fit system configurations. For dual-dial Li2 shoe models, users can double the power and micro-adjustability per click for unparalleled precision. This is BOA’s first-ever dial platform to introduce a composite material overmold – a durable, low-profile grip around the perimeter of the dial.
Cycling footwear equipped with the new Li2 platform is currently in the hands of Pro Tour team riders and will debut in the market this fall with numerous product launches from BOA brand partners. Visit BOAFit.com for more details and upcoming product releases.
