Evening all,
I'm after some road shoes and I've narrowed it down to one of these two.
I haven't tried on the Bont's but have tied some A2's which were ok but not as comfortable as the R170's.
Has anyone tried the Riots?
Any advice or experience appreciated!
Cheers
Matt

I've got the R170s and they're super comfy for my feet.

Thanks for the recommendation. I've tried the r170's and found them a great fit too.
Cheers again
Matt

Careful with the whole Bont mold them to fit thing, I've got some and they are the most uncomfy shoes I've ever worn, despite molding them 6 times...

I switched from Sidi's to a pair of Bont's (Vapor's). Big mistake, like crikey I tried moulding them several times but there's just something that doesn't feel right.
Don't get me wrong, the Bont's are nice, they're just not for me. Sidi's suit me better.

Anyone want to trade some Bont Vapor's for some Sidi Ergo's? (Size 45 - black preferred).
