Sidi’s updated version of the acclaimed Alba shoe performs much as expected—without compromise. The stiff carbon sole provides responsiveness, boosting pedaling efficiency in a lightweight package, at a mid-level price point. The Alba 2 is equally capable as a rider’s first pair of road shoes or a skilled cyclist’s fresh set. Long rides on winding canyon roads demand comfort to ensure you’re entirely focused on your surroundings. Politex upper material simultaneously wicks away moisture surrounding your foot and prevents moisture from entering the shoe, keeping your feet dry and blister free.
