We can’t accept drum and bass

if those shimano shoes are wide fitting, i may buy some.   need some new shoes as my keens have almost disintegrated.

New for 2024: Yamaha E-MTBs with their patented NadCatcher Pro top tubes.

but who knows – I used to fit a ME7 and AM9 but bought both of them in the last year or so and were way too tight.

@ton – we had to size up two sizes, so I wouldn’t say so

Incidentally, we have MY23 shoes, which are currently on sale everywhere, but Madison reckons it’s not getting the MY24 shoes in this year anyway…
