Madison distributes big-name brands such as Shimano, Park Tool and Vittoria in the UK, so the company’s trade show, iceBike, always has lots of interesting tech on display.<\/p>

For 2024, that includes Shimano’s ‘Olympic’ line of S-Phyre shoes ready for this summer’s Olympic Games, as well as a GP 4 Season tyre competitor from Vittoria, a travel tag from Knog, new Madison clothing and bikepacking bottles cages.<\/p>

Let’s dive into all that \u2013 and more tech highlights from the show.<\/p>

Shimano\u2019s new range of S-Phyre cycling shoes<\/a> was on public display for the first time since they debuted in December.\u00a0<\/p>
The range comprises an upgraded RC903 road shoe, an XC903 mountain bike shoe and an all-new S-Phyre-level triathlon shoe<\/p>

The S-Phyre RC903PWR is a specialist super-stiff shoe designed to provide the most secure and firm pedalling platform possible, according to Shimano.<\/p>

The XC903 borrows heavily from the RC903<\/a>, with updated Boa lacing and new perforated uppers to increase ventilation.<\/p>

The TR903 is the first triathlon shoe to bear the S-Phyre name. <\/p>
The upper Boa dial is ditched in favour of a Velcro strap for speedy tri transitions. They\u2019re slightly less stiff than the road-going RC903, scoring 10\/12 on Shimano\u2019s stiffness scale.\u00a0<\/p>
