Headshot Posted April 22, 2015 Share Mounatin Mail Order in Observatory used to be or are still the agents but I see their site does not list any bike footwear anymore. My wife wants a pair of Vxi clipless shoes but they seem to be very thin on teh ground in SA. Any suggestions or info on where to get them in SA. Size 4.5 please :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR ◣◢ Posted April 29, 2015 Share What happened with the pricing. Wow. Seems to have shot up quite a bit. Exchange rate is really screwing us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DR ◣◢ Posted April 29, 2015 Share Yeah, the VXI's are really dear.  The SO is looking to go to flats. Will look at some cheap skate sneakers to start her off. 5.10s are just too expensive for a "lets see if this works" scenario. Hairy and Captain Fastbastard Mayhem 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant justify the price of 510's currenly.And they are really just a glorified pair of skate shoes (the free riders anyway) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piston ZA Posted April 29, 2015 Share The SO is looking to go to flats. Will look at some cheap skate sneakers to start her off. 5.10s are just too expensive for a "lets see if this works" scenario. Look at the following:  https://community.bikehub.co.za/topic/143140-flat-pedal-shoes-other-than-five-ten/?hl=%20flat%20%20shoes Got the Hi-Tec Figaros for R400, paired with Shimano Saints, and so far I've had no issues with grip. Sure, not as grippy as 5.10s, but a good place to start on a budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piston ZA Posted April 29, 2015 Share Try and convince the fairer sex to ride with those Probably not the most stylish, but they do start to look better once covered in dust and mud. They are very comfortable as well, done a few walks in them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried riding my Jekyll with my old DC shoes I used to use for flatland. It felt like I was ice skating on my pedals compared to my Free riders (even with the big holes in the sole). The DC's were also far to flexible. The DC's were acceptable for flatland because you spend more time standing on the tyres than the pedals. Brawler 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
