Go to the prizes section to find out more.
DMT's Kyoma shoe
As worn by Giro favourite Ivan Basso and his CSC team, the Kyoma offers the same overall characteristics as the Flash in a three-Velcro strap-closure system. The heel cup construction includes an external, anti-weakening stiffener for optimal support and stability, and the new SLHC (Super Light Hardened Carbon) sole combines superior energy transfer at minimal weight, available in a Look compatible, three-hole drilling. At a mere 209 grams, the Kyoma sets the bar in lightweight, performance-oriented, carbon road shoes.
New Features
In this year's game you will be able to see a full ranking list and the details of who picked which riders and for which stage. You can use the search feature to find your friends teams and see what they have entered. We have also changed the GC points system this year to be in accordance to the UCI's changes to last year's points system. Now only the top 15 GC riders score points. We hope this will even up the points distribution further.
