  1. Good afternoon Hubbers! Anyone ever attempt to replace the Boa dials on their cycling shoes? If so, are there local stockists of the replacement kits?
  2. My dog got hold of my 5.10 Kestrel and chewed the boa lace. Funnily enough, she didn't damage any other part of the shoe. Who can repair this, or alternatively is it easy enough to do it myself? If it is, would fishing line be a suitable material to use? The damaged goods: http://bitsandpcs.co.za/images/kestrel2.jpg The culprit: http://bitsandpcs.co.za/images/roxy.jpg
  3. Hello Hubbers, I've been looking through the forums and can't seem to find a definitive answer to the problems I face. Sooo... Firstly Shoes... I have a budget of 2k for my shoes. I would really like something that has the boa system because i think its frikken awesome but please let me know if its any good. So basically what is a good shoe in the 2k range? Should I get something like a first ascent torque 2 or an flr f55 or something shimano... or should I save up and get the Specialized Expert? Have also seen the Fizik m5 boa, those are also cool, but again is it the best in this price range. I am leaning toward the Giro Cylinder because it has get boa system and it looks pretty awesome, but are the shoes good? So basically I'm just trying to find out whats a good brand to go with for quality and value for the money that I end up spending. Also, where are the good shops in Johannesburg that I can shop at for good deals? Secondly pedals, I want to ride trail as well as start doing some good distance on the road... I want to go clipless and I have found pedals for sale on the hub that I will get... I just want to know which is better between the Shimano m520 and the m530... Is the extra cage on the 530 better? Thank you, any advice will be greatly appreciated. Apologies for the essay
  4. I have a pair of Lake MX170 MTB shoes with the Boa cable lacing system & the dial on the one shoe has got stuck & won't tighten the cables. Does anyone know where I can get the special Boa tool to open the dial to investigate what the problem is? I watched a Youtube video & it seems that there's a small tool with a yellow handle that is needed to loosen the dial to open it up. The tool fits into the centre of the dial & is loosened by turning anti clockwise.I think some Specialized shoe models also use the same cabled lacing system. Can anyone tell me where I can get hold of the Boa tool here in Cape Town?
