VECTOR RC1 WHITE

The RC1 brings our core engineering to a wider audience — combining anatomical precision with everyday race performance.

Developed through our proprietary foot-mapping and biomechanical research, the RC1 delivers stability, comfort, and responsive power transfer within a streamlined, race-inspired design.

At its foundation lies a 3K carbon-fibre base, providing efficient stiffness and direct energy transfer for confident acceleration and control. Above, the anatomically contoured upper ensures a naturally aligned fit — maintaining comfort and support across long training sessions and competitive rides alike.

Balanced between performance and accessibility, the Vector RC1 embodies our commitment to delivering real race efficiency to riders progressing toward elite performance.

• Weight: 230 grams (based on size 42 shoe)
• Use: Primarily for Road but is also suitable for light gravel
• Stack: An ultra-low 4.0 mm stack height minimizes foot-to-pedal distance
• Closure: Dual dial system with micro adjustment and dual-directional operation

KEY FEATURES

3K Carbon-Fibre Sole

Engineered for efficient power transfer and balanced stiffness for responsive performance.

Anatomically Contoured Upper

Promotes natural alignment, stability, and comfort for extended training and race use.

Proprietary o2c Fit Architecture

Derived from anatomical mapping and biomechanical studies to optimise support and fit consistency.

Precision Closure System

Enables secure, micro-adjustable tension for dependable control.

Streamlined Performance Design

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION

Construction & Materials:

• 230 grams weight (based on size 42)
• Toray 3K Carbon Sole
• Ultralight Microfiber upper for improved breathability, comfort, and performance
• Lightweight anti-stretch liner for a cool and comfortable fit across the entire day
• A lightweight, triple-density EVA insole engineered specifically for our shoes. Its sculpted, curved edges create a seamless transition between foot and shoe for enhanced comfort and support
• Replaceable heel guards with internal fittings.

Closure System:

• The O2C Dial System integrates dual micro-adjust dials with dual-directional operation, enabling incremental tightening and loosening for precise tension control and balanced pressure mapping across the upper.
• Every dial and cable is backed by a lifetime performance guarantee for the life of the shoes.

Stack Height:

• An ultra-low 4.0 mm stack height minimizes foot-to-pedal distance, improving mechanical leverage, stabilizing the ankle pathway, promoting a more circular pedal stroke, and reducing stress on lower-limb joints to help prevent injury.

Cleat Mounting:

• High-strength carbon-steel T-nut hardware provides exceptional thread durability, consistent torque retention, and reliable three-hole cleat positioning throughout repeated adjustments.

Ventilation:

• A strategically vented upper maximizes airflow and thermoregulation, maintaining breathability and comfort across varying environmental conditions.
  

Why O2C Cycling

RC1 – The O2C fit at a more accessible price. The same anatomical principles as our Axis shoes, on a 3K carbon sole built for riders moving up.

True anatomical fit

Shaped around how your foot works under load, not a traditional last.

Standard and wide

Choose the fit that matches your foot, not the one you have to put up with.

Proven pedigree

From the designer behind shoes worn to Olympic, World Championship and Grand Tour wins.
