Bike Hub's 2017 Sock Off

[Pure Savage]

Two things...

 

• Again with the hairy legs modeling bike kit.
• Falke socks @ R55 make you go just as fast.

 

The end.

Falke socks? The 90's SMSed and want their socks back!

I have two pairs of Trace-Socks and I love them!! They super comfy and I love the designs of the mountain and waves. Local is lekker

Pack of 3 for under R50 at shoprite and last's longer than brands like Falke.

No love for http://sako7.com ?

Ships local, goes international! hence the $ tag 

Yes they are pricey, but it is cycling after all! 

 

KLIMT SOCKS - now, i truly have seen it all.

[nonky]

those damn freaking leg hair. damn guys. 

if you don't get payed to ride at least looking good trying. socks make the kit. its fun. that is why we all don't have cheap paint jobs on our bikes.  

but please what ever socks you wear make sure the legs are shaved. it.just.looks.better.

 

Duh.  This is cycling.

Shaved legs = men's socks

Unshaved = ladies range

SLX and XT socks probably just as good although a little heavier and not as plush, and remember... last years XTR is this years XT...

I have no problem with others shaving their legs, but I don't have calves, so I don't want them to look even skinnier. At least I don't have skinny girly arms like the rest of the cyclists. Girly arms are just wrong on a man. Leave the razor and rather lift something heavy.

Socks...I love my donut versus socks. They go nicely with my pink laces too.

Nah, Crazy Store range and prices beats Shopright in the clothing department!!

I must admit if someone had a nice lumo pink or lumo yellow sock in their range I would buy, even if 5" long. But not pastels or pictures for me.

Cool will try them, Pep iv'e found rubbish, their socks are like tissue paper.

It worry me to think how the underwear looks of everyone on here who says socks isn't 'important' to cycling kit... because socks one/the world can see while you wear it, your underwear one/the world can't and hence I am to believe that your 'attention to detail' will lack even more in that regard...

Best would be to not mention it. someone might give you the offer "show me yours ill show you mine".

That was my next port o call.  Thanks for the heads up.

Maybe riding without socks and a good inner will work.  Done it before when cheap socks were unavailable.  

Worked for me.

Those socks with the bananas, jellybeans, donuts etc. on look good when girls go to bed on a cold night .....

that is why bench press Monday is a international training day.

Somewhere there must be a list of cycling etiquette,  do's and don'ts.
