Competitive Cyclist Reviews Giro Road Shoes

[nando72654]

Just bought a pair of Giro Factor's. Coming from the boat anchor Shimano R133, I can't believe how light these are. My foot slid right in and it just feels great.

Damn, you're a good salesman Andy. I mean that as a compliment.

Your videos are always informative.

regardless all your videos are interesting and i enjoy them, keep up the good work

are bike shoes realky necessary? we my buddies and i play football we dont put on all the pads and uniform. the bids jerseys and socks and shoes seem kind of unnecessary. im just gettting into biking and im 22yrs old maybe its a generational thing, once i hit 40 i might think looking like lance armstrong every time i ride my bike is cool.

@xfightcityx they might not do a difference on 30mile rides... but try 100+miles and you'll start noticing the difference on good shoes, bibs, helmets.. etc..

@xfightcityx In short, yes they are. If you are cycling for fitness, racing, or otherwise and not going out for a quick 5 mile ride around the block the benefits of cycling shoes can not be overstated.

Over long distances every point where your body interacts directly with the bike is extremely important. Shoes, saddles, handlebars.

It is not really an age thing at all, it is about having the proper equipment for your sport.

the SLX is basically a flashy pair of socks with that weight!

[dahgutone]

Wow. Sidis got some competition.

[destructicon500]

I like how he praises the Factor and then describe the SLX as "not having any gimmicky closure mechanisms" haha

[shineshinexc]

i love your videos but do you think you could so some comparison videos between comprable products from different brands? that would be even more helpfull

[wickedout2010]

Nice looking shoes! Only issue, they'll cost you some cash!!

[racecrewleader]
