German term

Steuereinschlag

German to English Tech/Engineering Sports / Fitness / Recreation
In a description of sports shoes for biking. There's not even a full sentence, it reads:

Fusspolsterung, leicht, aerodynamisch, Schlagschutz, mehr Steuereinschlag.

There's no other context whatsoever, other than a picture of a cyclist.

for improved cornering?
Jeff Steffin (asker) Jun 10, 2021:
This is the explanation given... "Es geht hier nicht um mehr Griffigkeit, sondern wenn der Fahrer lenkt, dann kommt die Ferse je nachdem mehr oder weniger hin zum Boden. Auf dem Bild sind die Beine gestreckt und die Fersen der Füsse kommen nicht weit nach unten, wenn er lenkt, dann geht die eine Ferse mehr nach, unter Umständen berührt sie den Boden, und der andere Fuss wird bis zur Fussspitze gestreckt, dadurch hebt sich diese Ferse an.
Es geht also hier um die Winkelbewegungen am Steuerrad und den Wendewinkel." Still unclear as to the exact term, any help would be greatly appreciated... :-)

Intriguing Does the picture show the cyclist with his/her feet on the handlebars?
philgoddard Jun 9, 2021:
I wonder if it's just a fancy way of saying "grip". Are they just regular shoes, or do they have cleats?

Midsole

The midsole of motion control is also crafted to be rigid and stable. In fact, if you grab a motion control shoe down the middle and try to bend it then you are bound to note that rigidity.
This is one part that controls feet overpronation thus it is made of a harder material such as dual-density ethyl-vinyl-acetate (EVA) which offers more control and stability.
Outer Sole
This is the part that meets the road and just like most other footwear, motion control outer soles are usually made of rubber.
Stiffer rubber such as carbon rubber is often used in parts that tend to wear faster and vice versa.
You can also identify a motion control shoe by trying to flex the outer sole pivoted in the middle.
Again, it will be rigid but it should be able to flex slightly on the forefoot.

You can also call it a 'control tilt'
Peer comment(s):

agree Steffen Walter : I'd just say "better motion control" or even "... pedal control". / "(Pedal) grip" might be another option (see Phil's discussion entry).

articulation

I think it has to do with tactile feedback to the wearer. Perhaps something like more articulation and ground/pedal feel?

control impact

A rather literal translation, to be sure, but I believe it captures the intent of the original.
