The Mavic Cosmic Elite Tri triathlon cycling shoes serve a simple purpose: to ensure a smooth transition from exiting the water to the first pedal strokes. The wide strap adjusts quickly, the heel buckle makes them easy to slip on, and the ventilated upper helps the foot dry out after the swim. On the bike, the Energy Comp sole aims for efficient power transfer whilst maintaining useful flexibility in events where comfort matters. The OrthoLite insole provides softer support, which is appreciated when barefoot or on long rolling sections. With a claimed weight of 245 g per shoe, this Mavic triathlon shoe remains lightweight, responsive and easy to use, from training to race formats where every transition counts.
Main features
Quick transition in the transition zone
The wide strap fastening simplifies the process at T1: the shoe opens easily, closes in a single movement and remains adjustable once you’re off. The triathlon-specific heel loop provides a firm grip for quick slipping on, even with wet hands. This technical choice prioritises direct handling, in line with triathletes’ expectations as they leave the park.
Dries quickly after swimming
The upper is the part of the shoe that wraps around the foot. On the Cosmic Elite Tri, it is made from soft synthetic microfibre, with ventilated zones and strategically placed perforations to allow air to circulate. After swimming, this design helps wick away moisture and reduces the feeling of a closed-in foot during the cycling section, particularly in hot weather.
Lightness when pedalling
Weighing just 245 g, the Cosmic Elite Tri is unobtrusive when pedalling and comfortable during transitions. Its Energy Comp sole positions the foot close to the pedal axle to enhance efficiency and energy transfer. The OrthoLite insole completes the package with a more comfortable fit.
