Creme' Boulle' Posted January 9, 2013 Author Posted January 9, 2013 are they 'casual shoes' made to look like cleats, for cyclists?They are, they have a decent rubber sole just like a skate board shoe, I don't think they are very hard wearing but they look cool.
'Dale Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 ...and ask all those who ride cleated to show you their emotional scars from being mocked as they fell over in the parkinglot Gonna be a long queue for that...
Daft Vader Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 They are, they have a decent rubber sole just like a skate board shoe, I don't think they are very hard wearing but they look cool. Then rather just ride clipped. Why anyone would want to wear cycling shoes as a fashion item is beyond me.
DR ◣◢ Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Ive seen the Spez shoes in real life. They look a lot better than that.

BikeBailing Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 dammit! I should have waited for those! If you get tired of waiting i have some nice nice Mallet 2's for you? I've also heard good things about these http://cdn.mos.bikeradar.com/images/bikes-and-gear/components/pedals/WMB88.gt_1.control_prev-399-75.jpg I have a pair of the Time's in my cupboard, got them at a steal off On one. Got them with a similar approach to Mil: flat to play and clipin when I am making silly attempts to go fast.

BikeBailing Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 Only one ride on the XC bike and were good. Not that much play. But felt a thousand time better than the stupid candy's I started out on. Now that the izi is done and I'm almost allowed on a bike again, I will have some more feedback soon. You could also try them some time if you want.

Yeah, the Time Freerides have 5deg of float which is nice when ones feet may need to move around a bit.
nolipoli Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 I see that CRC have some 5.10 Spitfire FreeRide's for just over R500 are those fine to get or am I wasting my ZAR's?I have ordered some, because I can't afford the Freeriders right now. I'll report back when I get them.What I can tell you is that the article here: http://www.bikejames...th-flat-pedals/ has got a bit where he describes the difference between the Spitfires, Freeriders and Impacts.I think it is on pg21. It looks like it is difficult to go wrong with the price. Thug 1

DubbelBuys Posted January 9, 2013 Posted January 9, 2013 These are cheaper on chain reaction I think. Yes - thanx I've seen them on crc. About half the price before shipping & taxes. Considered getting 2 pairs as the price is very good. Creme' Boulle' 1
