|   Lightest Shoes? | joe2
Nov 2, 2001 6:53 PM | | I think the importance of having light shoes is overlooked.
Afterall, you are spinning these things around all the time.
Any weight saved there will increase your efficiency.
Who has the best/lightest shoe?
Anyone have a complete listing of shoe weights?
Thanks |
| lightest: Gaerne-Sidi-... | nino
Nov 2, 2001 8:57 PM | | german magazines did a comparison test on several high-end shoes last year.all in the same size (euro 42) the Gaerne was lightest at around 700g followed by the Sidi at around 740g.most others were between 800-900g. |
