Tried these out fro the first time today - put them on and felt so comfy until I pulled out of my driveway

 

Not sure if it's my look x track pedals but they rub on the crank (see the white on my crank)  Adjusted the cleats every way I could but it doesn't help

 

It's like I need my pedal extended out - They can't have overlooked this on their design so I will do a bit of googling but I'm not changing my pedals

 

So unhappy as they really look the business and would be great for touring

No way you can let that happen to your sparkly cranks...Longer crank boots?

 

Edit...BTW are they walkable without sparks coming from the cleats?

With the rounded cleats, they/mine walk perfectly.

 

One negative after having used them a bit, cleat placement is NB. The soles are flexi for waking so getting cleat position right makes a big difference.

They are great for walking - my thinking is for touring so I need to make them work - I really want to do a nice tour soon

So this is not my latest purchase but one I actually made some years ago.

It’s a cycling kit bag from a Cape Town based company.

The bag looked like a great idea and I can now say a few years later that it’s been awesome.

 

It’s big enough to hold all manner of stuff, helmet, shoes, gloves, shades, even knee pads etc.

Because it’s sturdy I can store my stuff in it at home and when I’m cycling away from home I just put it in the car and off I go.

Everything is always in one place.

 

I highly recommend it!

I have no connection or affiliation with them at all, I just realised how much I appreciate it and thought it’s worth a punt.

Yeah for sure, but the extra 250g starts adding up after a while. Either way, cup of cement/etc ya know :)

That's what I experienced before, this time I done the enquiry/quote via their app and I got lucky I guess and they were best priced at R350 less than all other stores
