[Closed] PSA: SHIMANO GR7 flats £29 @ evans

Thanks for that--needed some extra shoes.

Great timing, genuine bargain. Thanks!

Jeez I bought them at 49 and thought that was cheap! I'm happy with mine. Definitely a summer shoe though. Very light and comfy but take on water very easily.

Ta!

any real life info on how these size up and how they compare gripwise to five tens?

Cheers, bit of a garish colour but I already have plenty of green kit so well worth a punt.

Thanks. Madison Zenith waterproof is also at £29 (from £99) - just the black colour, all sizes available. If it's as good as my Zenith waterproof shorts then it's a bargain too.

thanks simonG, seen a few good deals, but the filter isnt great.
I'll check it out

the onguard locks are cheap, as is the endura MTR spray pullover at £59 too

£8! Worth chucking the basket if you're buying something! [url= https://www.evanscycles.com/madison-zenith-short-sleeved-jersey-EV365518 ]Zenith top[/url]

I'm normally a 9 but found the 44 a better fit than 43.

Woolie Boolies for £5 / pair

Fill yer boots, so to speak.

Spot on ta.. Pair have been ordered for sons Xmas present👍

Splendid. My AM45's have just died so great timing.

Just ordered his 'n' hers.

Ace PSA, Five Tens have got to the squirting-water-through-the-sole-stage. Thanks!

Thanks OP, my Five Tens are at death's door so this is a timely PSA for me 🙂

I found them to be quite narrow at the toe. I'm usually a 42 in Shimano and that's what mine are, there's just less "wiggle room". The almost identical GR900s are a better fit on me.

Yes, my experience with Shimano stuff is that sizing up is a good idea

Cheap evoc bike bags as well - £240

And good deals on stans stuff (sealant and kits)

Anyone know if sizing is accurate with madison jackets?

They are great shoes, have a pair for a little over an year.
Can only compare gripwise to some Fiveten Spitfires I had, let's say the Spitfires were 10/10 the GR7s 9/10, but otherwise way better shoes.

They are stiff enough to not feel pedal pressure points even after a full riding day day supple enough to walk in full comfort. They are easy to get wet but dry easily.

Toe protection could be improved a bit. Otherwise, like with most Shimano stuff, really durable, mine are like new after an year

Anyone know if sizing is accurate with madison jackets?

Yeah, Madison sizing is pretty good. Not a slick, roadie fit, so if you like that, size down 🙂
I ordered the ION shoes for £12 more than the Shimanos, cuz I is ION fanboi.

Great timing.

The terrex I use for commuting are about to give up and disintegrate!

Cheers!

Great PSA, Thanks whatyadoinsucka (and simon_g and DezB. shoes, jacket and top purchased

Cheers . Jacket and socks for me:-)

Cheers, Great PSA. Bought some for Her Outdoors to replace her eight year old Specializeds.

Got mine today. First impressions are great. Stiffer than my old terrex and almost as grippy.

I ordered two sizes but couldn't exchange the larger pair for the smaller size because the price has gone back up. Chap in the shop thought it was a fat fingered error.

Not sure whether to keep (probably be fine with bigger socks) or sell/return.

acidchunks, what size doesn’t fit?

Mine arrived today as well. Comfy out of the box and super squeaky on the kitchen lino! 😀

Jsync, 44 pal. I'd swap for a size 43.

Followed the link - £59 not £29 ??

I'm the other way round, 43 delivered today and 44 needed

Acidchunks, too small for me but it looks like you have a swap with slackman.

Followed the link – £59 not £29 ??

3 day old thread.

Anyone got a pair of the women's in a 38 they want to swap for some 39s?

yup 59 quid now. bugger

I accidently ordered a size 41 so far too small for me.
If anyone wants them for what I paid, let me know 🙂

Thanks for adding the link in there OP.
Singletrack will get a small cut on each sale.

Mine arrived yesterday and I'm very happy for 30 quid 🙂

They look more betterer for wet weather than my 5:10s (in that they look as through they will dry out), sole feels good in terms of stiffness and grip, and the little elastic lace retainer thing is nice.

Color scheme is a bit meh but luckily I rarely look at my feet when riding so will only be a practical problem for my awesome instabanger shots.

I ordered a 44 and a 45, the 45 fitting me.

I was going to return the 44 but if anyone wants me to send it their way, for cost plus postage, I'd be happy to oblige.

I'll have em!

Edit: please! 🙂

Just ordered one of the Madison waterproofs - ideal for the commute. Cheers.

So the IONs I bought are now cheaper than the Shimano - have just collected, so will post any sizing issues.

My IONs in a 45 seem pretty tight on first trying. My feets were hot from walking around, but I think they might be going back. Shame, they look quality.
