RacingRelease date 2024-08-28JP

FAST-RB NITRO Elite is an experimental road racer released in a worldwide run of 1,000 pairs to explore performance beyond competition limits. Its 58/46mm NITROFOAM ELITE stack sandwiches three carbon-fiber PWRPLATEs, combining extreme cushioning with a layered propulsion structure. A laceless ULTRAWEAVE mesh upper uses PWRTAPE for reinforcement, while PUMAGRIP provides multi-surface traction.
