Features:
Dual Stage Pivot System: This revolutionary new system is patented and exclusive to Gaerne and is certainly going to be a hit. The first pivot is attached to the "Razorback". This provides a rigid component that offers a strong lateral support while a glide-plate keeps the upper in a firm and upright position. The second pivot is fixed on a sliding glide that allows the riders foot to feel natural while on the peg in a shifting or breaking situation - however it will "bottom out" and absorb shock in the case of over-jumping a jump or in the case of unwanted compression. Grip Guard: On the inner side of the boot is the all new rubber "Grip Guard". You can feel the exceptional grip of the bike, as well as offering a heat resistant padding against your inner leg. Front Plate/Shin Guard: This new Thermoplastic shin plate is anatomically shaped for a perfect fit. By removing 3 screws a rider can also make the opening wider to accommodate a bigger leg or knee-brace. Buckle System: The SG-12 utilizes 4 lightweight alloy buckles that attach to an adjustable strap. This system provides the rider "Easy in" and "Easy out" non failure system. Gaiter: Made of a new Swiss breathable fabric called Acronos, the gaiter is extremely stretchy but has the perfect shape to keep the sand and debris out. Interior Lining: On the inside you will find the famous "Gaerne Memory Cell Foam", known for the most comfortable feel and fit ride after ride. Heel Cup: The new heel cup has been designed to absorb shock in the case of a rear compression. Toe-Box: The new design features a slimmer shape in the toe area for an improved feel of the shift lever and the bikes controls. The entire area is wrapped by a new plastic material which is lighter and provides more comfort and feel for the bike as well. Toe Cap: The toecap has been re-designed and reinforced to provide a new "tougher" look. Sole: This sole is new in look, but still uses the Gaerne "Dual Composite" anti-shock rubber that has made Gaerne soles famous around the world. Insole: Inside the boot you will find an all new footbed which has been specially molded to correctly support the foot. In the rear portion of the footbed, a new shock absorbing material has been used. And in the front portion the construction has been made to allow the foot to vent.
