    Brand New Etxe Ondo Tights and Sidi Ergo 2 Shoes

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    Unfortunately I was hit by a car and have had several spinal surgeries. I finally broke down and sold my beloved Orbea Diva. Now I'm selling the gear I never used.

    Paid over $400 for for these shoes new and they have never been used. They are men's shoes size 40 but I am a woman American Size 7.5 - 8 and they fit me perfect. No cleats have ever been attached. Carbon Soles, Lorica leather is so cool - it's like a mirror - and these are the most comfortable shoes made IMO. Unfortunately they are too flash for the hybrid I have to ride after I got hit by a car. . These were a limited edition color last year - I'm not sure you can even find them anymore. I'm asking $200 for the pair.

    I have two pair of Etxe Ondo Blue/Black Marra tights in XS. I swear I've never even tried them on. These are IMO the nicest looking and most comfortable tights with a nice cozy fleecy inside. I bought them during my recovery and never got a chance to wear them. These sold new for $159 and quickly sold out. I don't think you can get them anymore. I'm asking $75 each.

    I'm in the SF Bay Area. I would love to sell them locally.

    Wow, sorry you got hurt! Glad you can still ride, even if it is not the kind you probably would rather be doing. Hope you sell your stuff.

    get better soon!

    Wow, those Ergo 2's are divine. I'm sure you'll sell them quickly! If they were my size I would have snapped them up myself.

    I hope you keep riding!

    Was going to say I wanted a pair of the tights, but when I looked at the sizing chart, I am squarely in the small size range. I thought it was unusual, since most smalls are big on me, but then I realized it's a Spanish brand, and European brands always are smaller.

    Thanks for all the support. I do hope to ride again (upright, with a hybrid - it's my neck) but I still have another surgery so right now I'm concentrating on getting better.

    Tights measurements: Waist unstretched: 22", fully stretched: 30", Hips unstretched: 17", fully stretched 22", inseam 30"

    While I am quite petite and always buy XS, these tights are not restrictive like some others. That's why they are so comfortable.

    The shoes are heaven. Granted I've only walked around in them but they jsut hug your feet. They aren't hard anywhere in the uppers.

    Interested in your shoes

    Hello Jaytay - I haven't posted here before so hope this gets to you. I'm so sorry about your accident and hope you do get back to riding.

    I would be interested in these shoes, althought I am no where near SF.

    Not sure how to e-mail you directly.

    Crankin - I've found the EO bottoms to be larger than advertised. If you wear XS in the Terry Bellas, the EO smalls will be too big for you. You're petite enough that you would need an XS in the EOs.

    I have these tights, and they are nice, well made, excellent quality.

    Their tops are opposite--fit smaller.

    Thanks for the info. I will PM the poster. I threw out one pair of my tights last year, since they were the original ones DH had bought me as a "surprise" when I first started cycling. They were shredding and too big, anyway. My other pair, are from Hind and they aren't made anymore. Had DH fix one of the side leg zippers when it broke last year, since I love these so much. I feel like I need a back up pair!

    I'm Such A Dufus! Wrong Measurements!

    I forgot to double the hip measurements! Everyone must think these tights are so tiny! Arghh! Proper measurements are below, and I also realized I have a new pair of pink in size small.

    Extra Small Tights measurements: Waist unstretched: 22", fully stretched: 30", Hips unstretched: 34", fully stretched 44", inseam 30"

    Small Tights measurements: Waist unstretched: 23", fully stretched: 32", Hips unstretched: 35", fully stretched 46", inseam 30"

    These tights are so warm and toasty. Would make a GREAT gift.

    Just letting everyone know that I did buy a pair of the Exte Ondo tights from JayTay and they fit perfectly. Thanks, Mickchick for the heads up on the sizing. Here's hoping I might get to use them tomorrow; it's going to be fairly mild out. I've never had tights with chamois, so it's a different feeling.

    Tights Still Available

    I still have one more pair of the xs blue tights. I think the shoes are sold although it could still fall through.

    Shoes are still available for sale

    It seems that men with small feet are fickle.

    These shoes are so beautiful. I guess it's just the wrong season. I advertised them over the summer on craigslist and within a day I had a buyer but I pulled out because I wasn't ready to let go.

    Shoes Sold - Tights still available

    I sold the shoes to a cute little male racer who is on the Cal Racing team. Double bonus : someone to root for.
