CX178 Cycling Shoe

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I’ve put long training miles and casual spins into this shoe, and the comfort stands out immediately. The broader toe box keeps my feet happy late into rides, while the nylon composite sole still feels efficient under power. The single BOA makes fit adjustments quick, especially when feet swell on hot days. It’s a great option if you want performance without the harsh feel of a race-only shoe."

We reach for the CX178 Cycling Shoe when comfort matters just as much as efficiency. Lake designed this shoe to support natural foot movement, making it ideal for long training days, endurance rides, and everyday miles that add up over time. From the first pedal stroke, the fit feels balanced and stable without forcing our feet into an aggressive shape.

The microfiber upper keeps things breathable and secure, while the redesigned Sport Comfort Last allows our toes to splay naturally under load. Underfoot, the nylon composite sole delivers dependable power transfer with just enough forgiveness to stay comfortable for hours. Add in BOA micro-adjustability and thoughtful ventilation, and the CX178 becomes a shoe we trust for consistent performance ride after ride.
