FAST-R NITRO Elite

RacingRelease date 2022-03-01JP

FAST-R NITRO Elite is the original FAST-R road racer for elite race-day use. Its split midsole combines responsive NITRO ELITE FOAM in the forefoot with EVA in the heel. An exposed carbon PWRPLATE sits close to the ground to aid energy transfer and propulsion. The breathable mono-mesh upper aims for a sock-like fit, while thin PUMAGRIP LT rubber supplies traction across varied surfaces.
