NEW BALANCE FUELL CELL LERATO Review: Carbon plate cushioned shoes for daily training. Today our asphalt shoes section focuses on New Balance that expand catalog year after year. By 2021 it increases its offer and adds a new pair with carbon fiber plate in its Fuel Cell range, as we already brought you the Fuell Cell TC. This time with the LERATO model.

Today we are going with your presentation and technical elements. Soon video analysis and thorough testing.

NEW BALANCE FUELL CELL LERATO
(339G / DROP 8MM / 250€)

Lerato is a new concept of high-end cushioning training shoe that incorporates a carbon fiber plate and premium materials to provide greater economy in our runnig. Its traditional construction gives it excellent durability for daily use.

NEW BALANCE FUELL CELL LERATO DATA SHEET:

• Price 250€
• Weight 339g.
• Drop de 8mm
• Ground hight front 32mm and 24mm heel
• Fuel Cell midsole ACL
• Compression Moulded Eva
• Carbon plate

DEVELOPMENT NEW BALANCE FUELL CELL VS. FUELL CELL TC:

The foams used have similar elasticity:

• TC, softer
• Lerato, combination of ACL and molded EVA

Touch very similar despite being higher than the CT. At slow paces you feel more the cushioning in Lerato.
Stability and race dynamics:

• Lerato: solid base, greater stability, greater tread travel, less dynamics with good return.
• Tc: more anatomical base, less stability if you step flat, but more dynamic by favoring the footstep of the middle foot forward. It gets more out of the energy return.
• Lerato, admit any type of runner whatever your physique and footsteps.
• TC, limited to specific type of runners; not recommended for runners of strong physique and more blunt footsteps.

NEW BALANCE FUELL CELL LERATO CONCLUSION:

These Lerato are even closer to the popular runner, that is at a somewhat high price. A wider heel and fore foot, a more armed cover make Lerato a firmer shoe and ideal for training, in this case with carbon plate. In short, it is a shoe that opens its range of users in a very wide way.
