'There's a lot of cyclists with a lot of feet out there' is such a great strap line. Great video. My old white sidi shoes are not going on eBay- I'm gonna paint them!
They look great. Painting is art and science and a truck load of skill! great to see the process discussed here giving a understanding to why it isn't a cheap thing to get done! nice work.
Superb shoes, and a super motivating / inspirational video. Will I dare to have a go? I'll have to re-watch this a few times to get brave enough I think...
I rode with the Bostrom brothers who liked to give their mx boots a fresh coat of gold paint. I could see some paint on sponsorship on the legs especially calves or a message to my competitors. Black is my jam,,,Sean Kelly,,Eddy Merckx. Peace on earth and ocean
Does HMY have a YT channel? I have some questions about the paints, conditioners and other products used...I have a dual-action airbrush setup similar to the one in this video and now I'm having all sorts of ideas!
These shoes work with the Peloton bike+ (April 2022), ruclips.net/user/postUgkxGPkov2mNjgZfG33r6Bwvies8jKE4AKZB and are of good enough quality. I have completed 10 rides so far and there are no issues. The first time trying to fit them on the Peloton bike took 10 minutes (even with the help of an experienced cyclist friend who wears the same type of cleats). It took a couple of rides to break in. After the first two rides there were no issues at all.
#askgcntech. Hi gcntech (everyone included). Have a question about cranksets. Which would be faster? A 1. 50/34 or a 2. 52/36? If you do a sprint would 1. be faster if you have short sprint. How much further would you get with 2. given that you pedal at 180 watts? Maybe a stupid question but maybe subject for a test 😁
I do wish Manon would have gone for a dragon on those shoes but they look awesome with those colours! Manon definitely got a second career as a custom painter should she want to!
Manon did an amazing job, considering she has never used an airbrush (according to the pro's comment). He was very informative and helpful, fun video to watch!
#askgcnanything I just bought a brand new Canyon. In Canada finally. What do I do with my old bike that I put lots of kilometres. Money. Love. And building time into?
I tried to replicate this, had some old spray paint knocking around. It's ok, I really needed some new shoes anyway, I never liked the old ones really!? 😂😄😂😄😂😄😂😄
ok I get it... BUT ... how about a different approach, some if not most of us have a good but old cyclig shoes... try not to use airbrush because you don't have one and must of us don't have one... DIY project to give a pair of shoes a 'second life' by repaint. but basically let's drop the fancy stuff and get messy and clumsy see where we get then.
Personally I would have focused on the toes and worked backwards. Personally don't think they look all that, however fantastic video hopefully this starts loads of people's custom paint jobs!!!
I am not feeling the paintjob , i like the heel area which is metallic , but the second colour doesn't look very good. Maybe in in person it looks better and "pops". Was hoping for a cool logo of some kind!
Let us know what you think of Manon's shoes in the comment section below! 👇
Lush
love it
Dross
They look fabulous
Look really good 👍
Next level bling. Maybe add a little Welsh dragon?
Thanks Manon.....now you've gotta get custom kit to match ! Very cool
Very cool Manon. I am jealous. Great job!
Really enjoyed this. HMY is super cool and obviously a very fine instructor
Those shoes turned out really nice. I feel the addition of Manon's name gives the shoes just a touch more of a "custom" feel.
The orange highlights already on the shoe really makes the paint job pop! Hell of a job🎉

They are so bling 👍
Super cool paint job and paint shop. Well done to everyone involved.
Thanks! Glad you liked it! Have you seen our 'Makers' series on GCN+? 👉 gcn.eu/mep1
Very nice, well done Manon!! 👍😁
I custom painted a saddle with the same range of Angelus products. Looks near OEM complete. Very pleased.
Sick shoes and awesome guy!
Wow, Manon, these are so cool!
Why didn’t they remove the Boa laces before painting
Quicker to tape it off. Pretty common
Painting your shoes adds 200 watts.
Superb shoes, and a super motivating / inspirational video. Will I dare to have a go? I'll have to re-watch this a few times to get brave enough I think...
Relax
Go for it! What's the worst that could happen?! 😉
Omg Manon painting again ! Been waiting for this 😉
It will be nice to see cool on cool! Super fun to watch...
What a coool idea!

That’s a great idea 👍
Really cool! I’d like to try that… but I’m nervous haha
Awesome. I live in Australia and would love to try this on my shoes. Does HMY have his own you tube channel showing this in a little more detail ???
nice! I sorta thought you'd paint a dragon though.....
great video! I love all custom stuff, very creative and awesome
Super dope camera work!
I think Manon is in love; bless.

Surely it has to be a helmet next?
Good idea! One for the future perhaps

Ditto on the dragon, but still a cool looking pair of shoes.👍

Pretty OEM ;next step wrap the sole with vinyl
won't the paint be removed in the long run??
Excellent video - super informative and great to see HMY get the spotlight too 🎉

Omg I want that
Does it smell well?
Hi Manonlloyd5, I think that your shoes look very nice, You did a great job. I wish you and your family all the best. Love Ianwood ❤️❤️
Good eye, Manon.
Very nice - but then it is unfortunately all the worse if they get dirty in bad weather ... 😜
Hey Ollie, is this still as aero? Or do we lose 0.1 watt here? 😁
Gold nameplate wouldve been faster than bronze. ☺

How would painting the knit upper effect the breathability?
now half-sides done makes more sense.
I'd call the paint scheme: Salmon Necrosis
Your shoes look great, disappointed you didn’t put “left” and “right” on them though
My socks are labelled “left” and “other left”
❤❤❤
Quick warning this doesn’t work with a can of deluxe and some felt-tip pens 😂
Just take the BOA fastenings off. I'm just a grunt bike mechanic and even I know that.
I tried to replicate this, had some old spray paint knocking around.
It's ok, I really needed some new shoes anyway, I never liked the old ones really!? 😂😄😂😄😂😄😂😄
How bad is the weather in the UK that you guys are always complaining?
I prefer all white shoes.

Glad you liked it! Hopefully we'll see plenty of people uploading their shoes to the GCN app!
@@gcntech agreed!!

Mmmm, not my thing!
btw how should i get the money to afford a mid quality road bike?
Typically people work
Save up
maybe an airbrush business?
Ask the genie Remco Evenepoel
Depends… is “mid” average or median?
Is it just me or they look like a bruise? 😅
Stay with all white
Looks like the shoes are dirty stupid idea gimmick
Nice, but pointless.
Jesus ! Don't ever put new shoes on a table !
It's Manon in the video, not Jesus 😉
Superstitious much?🤷♂️
@@wonderwatch2239 it's almost science ! Like saluting magpies and touching wood for luck.
