Critics' Consensus

“The Altra FWD VIA 2 offers a comfortable, stable ride for easy daily runs with its plush EGO P35 foam and roomy toe box, but its dull rebound and lack of a plate make it inefficient for racing. It is best suited for relaxed cruising rather than fast-paced short-distance or marathon racing.”
