Jaco-fiets Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 I bought a pair of Bontrager RXL about 18months ago on a sale because they were at a good price. Did not have much use for them up to now since my specialized shoes were still fine. The specialized shoes are a bit moeg now and it is time to start using the bontragers. Having only done a few rides in past with them I never really noticed the "fit" issue. It basically feels like my heel wants to slip out now and then. Off the bike the fit seems to be ok. It is a size 44 and I normally where a 43 or 43.5 Can one buy a heel liner tipe of thing that helps with the fit or is it better to just buy other shoes? I have noticed my calves are a bit tender lately and I assume it might have something to do with the shoe fit perhaps?
babse Posted July 16, 2013 Posted July 16, 2013 never heard of a heel liner bt one can advise adding a thicker sole (having said that the standard eSoles are amazing),or maybe they are just abit to big! these shoes are awesome tho, have them RXL Road and MTB versions

Like you say, maybe they are just too big If I had to get other shoes it would probably be between the supplest sub zero and the funky looking Fizik M5 and perhaps one of the Diadora models

Will go check that out! I'll pass on the road shoes. Already have to many because of "well priced" encounters
Weight Weenie Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 Shot! They are cheap about 40 bucks a set. The gel version is one pair and the fabric is 2 pairs, so you can share with a friend or another pair of shoes.
