Details
Standing as the mid-tier option in their lineup, the TCX X-Helium Michelin Boots are made to give both novice and veteran riders protection, affordability, and performance in one great, affordable boot. The X-Helium does it by taking the excellent Michelin sole from TCX’s top-tier Comp Evo Michelin Boot and mating it to a chassis that is a little more flexible while still giving you a CE rated level of protection.
TCX saves you some money and omits the Dual Flex Control System found on the Comp Evo, but when you look at the X-Helium’s construction, you’re still getting premium materials in the Air Tech breathable lining, durable and easy to use alloy buckles, and impact absorbing TPU panels. That makes the X-Helium Michelin boot an excellent choice when you want an affordable price, excellent grip on bike and pegs, and a high level of comfort compared to other boots.
