Hyperion Elite 4 PB

RacingRelease date 2025-01-04JP

Hyperion Elite 4 PB replaces the Elite 4's DNA FLASH v2 with DNA GOLD, a 100% PEBA foam Brooks describes as lighter, softer and more energy returning than its predecessor. A size-tuned SpeedVault Race+ carbon plate and RapidRoll geometry shape this road racer. A breathable, supportive upper and rubber road-contact areas complete the design, with the focus on race-day fit and transitions.
