Speed Trainer2023-08-09 · JP · Release dateChecked 2026-11-09

Fli-Lyte 5 is a lightweight road trainer for daily runs and up-tempo sessions.

Recycled engineered mesh secures the midfoot and heel without crowding the toes. An OrthoLite Performance insole adds resilient cushioning for everyday training.
