Matt Vandart Posted March 31, 2010 Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 I got some new Ribbo shoes the other day very nice but expensive. Used to use try alls but they wore out quickly will just have to wait and see how these last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie_Trials Posted March 31, 2010 Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 most likely to be them, and what the other guy said TRYALLS WEAR DOWN FAST, my pair wore down in about 4 months and had a hole in the side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpoorsyTF Posted March 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 i was thinking just a pair of plimi's they'll give good feel from the pedals but not much protection on my ankles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Vandart Posted March 31, 2010 Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 Ribbo the grey high top ones from tarty ? Yes, initial feelings are good about them. I have ridden about 12hrs in them since saturday and they are already comfy. The sole is far better than the tryall also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willis-gu Posted March 31, 2010 Report Share Posted March 31, 2010 I wear good old plimpsoles, decent grip feet shape the pedals really well. However on falling off it hurts the feet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Vandart Posted April 4, 2010 Report Share Posted April 4, 2010 (edited) These Ribos I got do not give enough ankle support, broke my ankle today with something where it would not have happened with my try alls.
