• essentially giro top tier, so prolight, slx etc, but different upper. simple comfy shoes, with no fuss velcro (nothing to break). ec90 carbon sole.
    shoes are a very personal thing, giros do work for me so gone back to them, via rapha. lake were nice but too stiff. not much else fits right. apart from my old shimano r120 they were super comfy, but fell apart, and they seem to have altered their last a bit as new ones aren't the same.

  • Cool. I have only ever had one pair, Bontrager, which are very old and their range seems crap now: I really like them but they are only held together by super glue now, so time for something new.

  • Yeah bontrager make some good shoes. Best is to go to a decent sized shop and try a few bands on and see. Then buy the best fitting ones that you like the look of. And be wary of buying ones that 'just' or you think fit, as your feet swell and no doubt they will actually be too small. Bit of space in the toes is a good thing, as long as it closes up over the arch well and doesn't slip on heal, then all good.
