More about the Ultimate Exceed

Engineered for riders who demand perfection, the Ultimate Exceed is Nimbls all-rounder — lightweight, responsive, and built for the full spectrum of road riding. The BOA® closure system delivers a flawlessly locked-in fit, every pedal stroke, every sprint, every climb. Loved by the best in the peloton and equally suited to long Sunday rides; all-round performance, uncompromising comfort, no limits. Hand-crafted in Italy.

A Note on Speedplay Compatibility
At the moment, we only stock the 3-bolt type sole version of the road Nimbl shoes. And while you can use Speedplay pedals with this sole if you install the cleat adaptor that comes with Speedplay pedals, Nimbl does offer a Speedplay-specific version of some of its shoes for a closer connection to your pedals. If you'd like a Speedplay-specific Nimbl road shoe, please drop us a line and we can special order them for you.

The Finer Details

ALL-DAY COMFORT

All-day Comfort

The Nimbl upper combines microfiber, mesh, and memory foam for a fit that conforms to your foot — comfort hour after hour without sacrificing the precision the pros demand.

LOCKED IN

Locked In

The BOA® fit system delivers micro-adjustable precision — tighten on the fly, fine-tune on the climbs, forget about it on the flats.

MATTE CARBON SOLE

Matte Carbon Sole

Monocoque carbon sole in a refined matte finish (recently updated from gloss). Less than 2mm of sole stack means a closer connection to the pedals and uncompromised power transfer.
