S-Works Torch Remco

S-Works Torch Remco

The World’s Lightest for the World’s Fastest

Developed in partnership with Remco Evenepoel, the S-Works Torch Remco isn’t just the lightest shoe in the peloton at 148.2g—it’s the new benchmark for performance in the high mountains. Every gram, every detail was dialed through Remco’s feedback, refined with our Body Geometry methodology to deliver more power, more efficiency, and 44% less forefoot pressure. Validated during his debut Tour, it’s a shoe shaped by Remco, forged in the heat of Grand Tour battle.

Made in Racing

Designed in partnership with Remco Evenepoel and validated at the 2024 Tour de France.

Remco Wanted More, We Gave Him Less
In October 2023, Remco asked for a lightweight shoe for him to race in the 2024 Tour de France on stages with long, sustained climbs. For the following eight months, Remco was at the center of development—testing, providing feedback, and helping the team fine-tune a shoe that could match his explosive style. Because when our riders ask for something, we solve it in partnership with them. That’s made in racing.

Remco tested the third and final prototype in his debut Tour de France in five key mountain stages—4, 14, 15, 19, and 20. He attacked again and again on brutal climbs like the Col du Galibier and Pla d’Adet, trusting the Specialized Shoe Team with every explosive move.

148.2g - Lightest Race Shoe in the World

The lightest shoe in the pro peloton, weighing 3g less than the closest competitor.

Everything You Need, Nothing You Don’t
The S-Works Torch Remco achieves its featherweight status through a refined construction—featuring a simplified upper, a smaller carbon plate, a nylon-injected heel counter and toe cap, and a single Boa Li2 Dial. This all results in a shoe that provides everything you need and nothing you don’t in a lightweight, efficient, and comfortable package.

Stiffness, Done Right

Six years of studies results in all the stiffness you need, and nothing more, while saving 14 grams.

(Out)Sole Searching
Making a stiff shoe is easy. Dialing in the right stiffness? That’s the real science.

After six years of research, the Specialized Human Performance Team nailed the perfect balance—stiff enough for max power transfer, light enough for all-day efficiency. Tested with 2,000-watt sprinters and pros like National Crit Champ Charon Smith, the S-Works Torch Remco’s carbon outsole delivers elite-level output without compromise. Built for Tour de France demands. Engineered for pure speed.
