I go with 12mms if I'm unsure as if you're wrong it should only be a small price. Last week I should have gone with 15mms, the course was a mess after rain overnight and until 1pm on the day of the race, and the were a few races before the men's race so everything was churned by the time we raced. This week 12mms were fine. It's always hard to decide what to go with when it looks variable.

Chunkywizard Jan 2015 2:32pm, 12 Jan 2015 12 posts	Quote Pin Chunkywizard Any ideas on the weight of them? They look a bit chunky.
HermanBloom Jan 2015 2:38pm, 12 Jan 2015 4,767 posts	Quote Pin HermanBloom No idea, but if they grip well and don't blister my toes then they can weigh as much as they want
