Is this a big change from their current choice, options, etc, do you know? There's a few I've not tried, roclites being the obvious despite occasionally thinking of getting them, but I do favour some of their shoes over others.
K5 Gus Jan 2024 7:35pm, 24 Jan 2024 6,045 posts	Quote Pin K5 Gus We discussed the new Mudtalon Speed a couple of pages back. Well, there's a non-Speed version coming in March, ie just Mudtalon. Described as "Compared to the MUDTALON SPEED, the MUDTALON has a slightly thicker midsole, to give greater comfort and bounce over long distances" Still the same 8mm lugs, difference in midsole is 11mm/7mm so 4mm drop for Speed, and 18mm/12mm so 6mm drop for the non Speed. Again comes in both Precision and WIde fit Weight has only gone up a claimed 5g from 260g to 265g. Does this sound like a replacement for the X-Talon Ultra v2 ?? inov-8.com Oh and other thing is it's cheaper, more is less £120 v £130 for the Speed
