Chubba Posted April 19, 2012 Posted April 19, 2012 Need a new pair of shoes and have heard good things about these. Any advice on model and store to get them from. Not looking for the high end stuff. Cape based.
North Shore Posted April 19, 2012 Posted April 19, 2012 I can't suggest where to get them in the cape but I can hight recommend them. Ended up getting an ITB injury from prolonged riding on shimano and sidi shoes and haven't had a single problem in the two years I've been riding the specialized shoes. Evidence of how good they are is in their massive dominance in the mountain biking top echelons, even guys that would never step on a spec bike swear by the shoes.
Big JD Posted April 20, 2012 Posted April 20, 2012 Try Bridge Cyles in Diepriver. They have all the models and Mark will sort you out with a good price.
SeaBee Posted April 20, 2012 Posted April 20, 2012 I have either the Pro or the Comp MTB, I suspect the Comp... Not top of range but a genuine awesome shoe and the price was not bad at all.
Cycle Factory Posted April 20, 2012 Posted April 20, 2012 Great shoes. Have mine since 2007 and they're still going strong. What size do you wear?
Andro Posted April 20, 2012 Posted April 20, 2012 Hi, had a pair now since 2007, they are great. See Cycle Funatic in Durbanville carry range of Specialize equipment and apparel. Enjoy.
Sharkie 2 Posted April 20, 2012 Posted April 20, 2012 Had a nice pair of Specialized MTB shoes the pro ones with the ratchet and carbon sole very good shoes and would buy a pair in future again if the oppertunity arises
RocknRolla Posted April 20, 2012 Posted April 20, 2012 also like mine. (no idea what model they are - but there's one for the left foot and one for the right foot, and theyre red and black)Â does the job nicely - also dries out quickly
Bike Mob Posted April 20, 2012 Posted April 20, 2012 The Expert Shoe is a great mid range shoe, carbon sole for stiffness, and the easy velcro straps are simple to use, all for the same weight as the S-Works pretty much. Coenie 1
StuntJumper Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 Have a look at Tony Impey Cycles. He got the new Vittoria Supra MTB shoes and other ones too. They look awesome and are super priced. Handmade in Italy
Chain-L Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 Awesome shoes. I have the comp in a size 45 that is to big for me. asking R1200 if its your size, maybe consider them. Used 5 times.
jannosmit Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 BMT in Stellenbosch also stocks the full range of Specialized
JoJaCa Posted May 31, 2012 Posted May 31, 2012 Olympic Cycles should sell Specialized. I have the Sport Mtb shoe. It is the bottom of the range but it is still awesome.
