Synergy Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 (edited) thought i would make another topic as the other one was clogged up with people opinions.anyway mine came today (after being bought yesterday) so that was good service from trialsman on ebay.the shoe arrives in a yellow bag like those you used to see girls wear versions of nike or addidas with lace straps could be quite useful.the ribos themself are actually very nice looking compared to the photo on ebay. they do remind me of motorbike boots a bit with the velcro bits being shiny and chunky and also has a clip up top (like from clip rollerblades)not sure if you new that information anyway,but carrying on, i havent owned any other trials shoes but when you put this one on its trully nice n snug it has like an inner sock that goes into the shoe almost reminding me of the varooka socks for swimming lol! but way easier to get into and a lot comfier.pretty good grip on it also had a quick blast on my bike and it feels brilliant while your wearing them.unlike the monty ones these actually look solid all the way around but still gives you more than though movement.ill post up some proper pics if you want but hope my little review helped.

manuel Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 Hmm they may be nice but what can these truly offer that a dap doesnt at a very tiny fraction of the price ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synergy Posted March 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 (edited) here are the pics and im using vp pedals from daniel ko.they were £75 including postage from trials man and i would say they are worth the money but these are my first pair of trials shoes as im used to weraing k-swiss which constanly meant they were getting caught on cranks or not protection for my weak ankles. click for bigger and better quality images as usual.

dave33 Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 i thnik if they last 2 years then they are a good deal, depends how much nicer they are to ride inthe thing that gets me is i a have quite a few pairs of trainners and i dont tent to wear the sameones every time i ride so it always feels strange if i wear a different pair from the last ride, and some are better than other but its hard to pic the best pair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
