FAQ

How is the Lake CX238 different from the CX239?

The Lake CX238 evolved from the CX237 and was succeeded by the CX239, which adds an integrated tongue fused to the medial upper panel for firmer hold, a fiberglass-reinforced heel counter, and wider BOA dial spacing for more independent two-zone adjustment. The CX238 remains an excellent high-cadence road shoe and is often available at reduced, current-stock pricing.

What does Lake's Competition last mean?

Lake's CX/TX Competition last has a more curved profile than the Sport last, with increased toe pitch and heel lift, a tighter heel, and a slightly wider ball girth that lets the foot expand under high pedaling pressure. It suits high-cadence riders and riders who want a roomier forefoot than a traditional narrow race last.

What cleats does the Lake CX238 use?

The Lake CX238 uses a standard 3-bolt road cleat pattern compatible with Shimano SPD-SL, Look, and similar road pedal systems.
