Verdict

The cadence runner’s version of the Sky. Higher drop, more aggressive roll, same foam and plate package.

■ Caution

Same caveat in reverse — pick the wrong one of the pair and you lose most of the benefit you paid for.

9 retailer checks failed on the last run, so their prices are missing rather than wrong.

Prices are captured when the site is built and stamped with the time of that check. We never rank a retailer by what it pays us; where a link earns a commission it is marked sponsored and the price you pay is unchanged.
