CX400

Reviving one of Lake’s most iconic performance platforms, the new CX400 evolves from the original moldable design into a more streamlined, race-driven shoe built on Lake’s Race last. It delivers pro-level stiffness and stability through a refined carbon chassis, paired with an anatomically supportive fit that is ready to perform immediately. Designed to simplify setup while preserving Lake’s heritage of innovation, the CX400 provides a stable and efficient foundation for competitive cycling.

Please note the CX400 can not be heat molded.

Last

CX/TX RACE Last – Featuring a slightly more narrow toe box and tighter heel than the Competition last and less overall volume than the Sport last. Designed for very high-cadence riding with a slimmer fit.

Outsole

The CX400 features a full carbon fiber sole engineered for stiffness where needed and controlled flex where comfort is critical. This unique construction eliminates the need for heat molding by naturally adapting to the rider’s foot shape, providing race-level power transfer with long-ride comfort straight out of the box.

Upper

Clarino microfiber construction with strategically placed perforations ensures a lightweight, breathable upper that maintains structural integrity under load. Clarino offers the supple, form-fitting qualities of natural leather while resisting stretch and environmental wear, resulting in a consistent fit over time. The upper is engineered for long-ride comfort, supporting natural biomechanics while delivering the secure hold required for high-intensity efforts.

Closure

The BOA® Fit System with the Li2 Push/Pull dial is seamlessly integrated into Lake’s expertly designed uppers. While no single element ensures perfect fit, Lake’s in-house design, precise development, superior patterns, a world-class shoe last, and top quality upper materials combine with the dual BOA system to deliver unmatched comfort.
