Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I think it'll be slippy enough on the non-hills to need a bit of grip.

I reckon Roclites will be perfecto myself. But you know, wtf do I know.

The Bloo shooz will be best.

PJL, if there were any hills I would recoommend trying to run up them with baby steps and if that makes you breathe from your bottom then walk. It isn't an issue though, cos there are none :-)

FR, Quite a bit from what I remember. Enough to wear the shit outta my Mudclaws which were a bad choice in retrospect.

Roclites do road much better but there aren't too many places you need aggressive soles so the bloo Shooz will suffice I think. Especially as they are excellent on rocks and hard pack as well as road. I guess that is the most surface there. Grass and mud being in the minority.

I think the 315s MissJen. But that's because I have 315s and actually want to marry them slightly. I don't know what the difference is (apart from the number - which is about weight isn't it?) between them and the 295s...

eL Bee!
The upper and the fit are very slightly different, Roo
The 295 upper is a little more flexible (it's very like the Flyroc upper) and and 'airy', and it is slightly broader in the forefoot!

Mmmmmm, maybe I should think about my next trail show being the 295 if they are slightly broader in the forefoot then.

*slaps self* No more noo shooos, go to your room. Bad Roo.
