My Rocket7's are arriving tomorrow!!

[equus123]

I can't tell you how excited I am about my new road shoes coming - tomorrow. I ordered them Dec 6th from competitivecycling.com (because you can see the colors on the shoe if you custom color them). After all these weeks....they're almost here.

Does anybody else have Rocket7 shoes? The guy that's advising/helping me with cycling has a pair and highly recommends them. They're pretty much the lightest shoe on the market and the fact that its also rotational weight, the lightness pays off. I've had problems finding shoes that fit my feet comfortably so I also thought that this was a good option.

If anybody is interested in getting a pair from this company, I'll report back tomorrow and let yall know how they are! :D :D

Yep post a pic - I would love to see them. Love Competitive Cyclist I have gotten heaps of stuff from them and my husband cringes each time he sees me on their site.:D

[equus123]

hehe, its an expensive site because of the companies they carry. but i have to say though for cycling apparel, the more expensive, the better. ...plus they look cooler too :p

YIKES...

$400 bucks for shoes!? HOly *&^&%^% I think I'm going back to golf.. it was cheaper!

Dang.. those better propel you for the money!

[equus123]

sigh. they sent the wrong shoes. (mixup) :(

[mimitabby]

what?!?!? what a big fat bummer.

[roguedog]

dude.. bummer

[equus123]

Yeah, considering they were ordered Dec 6th! :o :(

[Trekhawk]

Yikes thats terrible. I hope they are going to get you the right ones quick smart.

[equus123]

okay folks, they're finally here. i got them Tues in a 10 minute stop at home to collect all of my crap for a spin class at my bike shop. (we use our bikes and trainers and do real work ;) ) i had the mechanic at the shop put some cleats on.

my diagnosis? they're SUPER light. they're very comfortable. i did, however, have to move the cleats back so i'll ride today with that new position. i'll have to report back on that because it makes a whole world of a difference when your cleats are in the right spot (for me at least).

more to come....

Yipee - pleased to hear you got your babies after all this time. Let us know how they work out for you after a few rides.:)
