Thanks. I am now returning my shoes

Wrong direction wrap on the drops? should be in to out.

Reverse wrapping is stupid and lazy.

Or you could get shoes that fit??

greatest video for bont shoes. thanx a lot

Yes! Just looking for this vid. Thanks Nik!

I got 3 pairs of Bonts 23/24. Vapor S and Vapor +. I cooked them to perfection and the fit is perfect. However, the left shoe, when I start riding, feels like a screw or something is picking from the inside right at ball of the foot. I inspected the shoes and they are perfect; it is just my foot. After sometime ridding numbness/discomfort start. Any idea what is it? I am avoiding the use of custom insoles. As I mentioned they fit perfect, putting different insoles takes away volume. Any ideas? P.S. I am already using cleats all the way back.

Thanks! Dig your ig account. Funny stuff.

You gave one of the best presentations I’ve seen !!!!

great video

Nice for the tape manufacturers, as you will get through your bar tape faster due to hands rubbing against the grain, so to speak.

How’s the difference between the narrow and standard for Vaypor S ?

This annoying thing could be solved without the need of using bar tape. Wider anti slip handlebar tubes (sand coated alike) which could conceal (by a cover) the shifter metal clamp.

it would be really hard to get the tape in clean around the plug. so you might not have electrical tape up top but your trading that for bar tape that is wrapped the wrong way on the drops and ugly plug area. you can try to glue the end of the tape together to be able to work with it easier and get a cleaner look around the plug. tip for conventional wrap on getting a clean look around the plug, is start it normally but only wrap a couple times from the plug end, secure the plug in and you will usually notice that ugly seam on the tape thats at the plug, you can unwrap to that part and pull it out, then continue to wrap. most ppl do the entire wrap and plug it last, but oh shit your tape at the plug is busted and youre not going to re wrap the entire thing are you?

Hi, the platform surrounding the roller looks great, it seems like you have a piece of the road in your cave. What material is it made of? Are there any blueprints for its construction? It would be great to see a video with all these answers and tricks. Thank you 🤩

would you trust this enough to cycle outdoors with it?

Nice video 👍. I’ve always wrapped mine this way since the 80’s including when I was club racing. I found that it is less likely for the tape to move and separate through heavy use. People saying you catch the edge when sliding on and off the hoods - I’ve never found this to be an issue, but then again I only ride on the hoods for hills. I have had arguments with people though trying to tell me this way is ‘wrong’ 😂. I also tried wrapping the top half this way down to the brake levers, and the bottom half the conventional way also terminating at the levers, securing the ends around the levers with electrical tape which gets hidden by the hoods.

Hi. I noticed at the end of the video you didn't put cleat washers. Is that recommended? Ty.

Great video, and I love your cycling area! I may be stealing some of these design ideas.

Hi, I did it the other way around: I did wear to large shoes for years... (not only on the bike...) That's not good as well. The toe box of the Bont shoes look nice. They seem to have space for the big toe. I think I'll give them a try.

exactly the info I was looking for. Thank you.

In my experience…it’s better to use shoe covers to address cold then thicker or more socks…I have wind, medium and thick shoes covers

ooh also it would be crazy if fans were powerful enough to simulate wind resistance--wait i dont think that would make sense with rollers--but fans that simulate wind instead of a set setting would be a nice augmented reality feature

if they added a magnetic resistance like some home modders have done with rollers and remote control, and the required sensors, i feel rollers could be used better on zwift than even stationary setups oh wow if i had watched the full video i wouldve seen that the motor does that--nice!

What is the advantage of ' reverse' when compare with ' non-reverse' ？

I've purchased a pair of Bont shoes...most painful shoes I've ever worn. I've tried so many times to heat mold, but I can't get the painful spot to go away. Bont basically just said I'm out of luck, and wants me to purchase another pair of Bont shoes! No thanks. I'll live with my other shoes that hurt, but hurt less.

this is exactly what I needed. Thank you

Great piece. I have been thinking of the same after experiencing numb bigtoes and strong pain there during the 1200 km Paris-Brest-Paris event. And ><i still hasnt recover 100%. Definetly gonna look out for less compressive socks

i find it reverse much easier! Thank you

Wow, I watched all that and you still never said how a cycling shoe should fit... HOW MUCH ROOM AT BETWEEN YOUR TOE AND END OF SHOE????

I know this is a 3 yr old content, but something I noticed is that you never talked about acceptable lengths of a shoe, what to consider. Do you get a size 47, when you really wear a 46.5, or do you go with the 46.5 as your standard shoe choice? New people won't know what is best and are susceptible to misinfo from a shop just selling new people what they might now need. Sure it works, but as you pointed out, you wore too tight shoes for years, because they salesman leaned you towards a shoe size that you probably never should have had. Maybe even talk about how Shimano shoes designs differ in fitment from most other shoe brands, as they might require a wedge to help the wearer to correct for an issue most people don't have.. I just felt like this was content about fitment, but really just a cloaked sale pitch for Bont.

Ahh yes.. the terrible chipmunks music.

I have been using sidi shoes for many years but find them to be narrow. I like the idea of the boat shoes with a wider toe box but don't no what size to get. I ride a sidi 43.5 so what size boat do i choose? Thanks

Hi nick, can we fit li2 boa dials on old vaypor s models with ip1?

Clean look, but not for all type of tape, only works with thin and rather firm edged tapes

How to reverse ? i was wondering what was the meaning of "to reverse" for a bar tape ...okay thank you that means starting from the top...that makes a good finish without the need of the extra tape but the pressure of the grip from up to down will worn the tape quicker making it peel away. One can too try to avoid the top tape piece by cutting the bar tape so it ends cleanly on the underside of the bar and glueing it.

Are you not afraid that the Phone jumps out of the case?

Wow!!! Didn't know you were on RUclips too! Just subscribed, but followed on ig, for a while already. Awesome

I've started wrapping from the top down, but I start with the tape edge pointing forward on the underside of the bar. This way, it keeps my hands from catching the edges of each layer and I won't pull the tape up over time.

How dare you not line up the boa logos!

looks like a source of a accidents

If I have the Vapor G shoes do I need to remove the medal plate that the cleat screws into of no?

Awesome platform for the rollers! Did you make it yourself?

Hello i would like to ask if it can be fix long size bont but the wide is exactly right

Excellent products …

Whare to find boa for shimano xc300?

Thank you.

OMG! This is a GEM! Awesome vid SOC!
