To all bike shops

[aff-man]

Right so I am going to buy a new set of boots tomorrow. Hopefully ones that will last. Just wondering what sort of discount you offer to KB members if any. Don't want to have to go to like 5 stores. Also what brands do you stock?

Sorry man checked out the ones you were selling remember... Want something with a tad more armour round the ankle (or were these different from the ones I saw?)

crashe. Probably shouldn't say this on here but I'm actually going shopping with my mom cause she is getting them for me for my b-day. First positive thing she has done for the bike and I get new boots so i'm not complaining.

What's your address?
I'm off tomorrow, but just for you I'll bring a selection around for you to try.
Size?

[Lou Girardin]

Or you could just come in to AMPS and check out Stylmartin, Oxtar and Spidi.
Tell Julie that I said you could have less 10% on non-specialled boots.

[The Stranger]

Uh-oh, down to 3.

[2much]

What size are you? Might be able to get you some sidi vertibras (earlier model) for cost+10% (that's $385, normal rrp is $650)

[Biohazard]

Shit if I get a pair of boots that last me 2 years I'll be well happy. Got some sigma's for like $200 last time and they have lasted about a year. And they always leaked.

[Mrs Busa Pete]

whats wrong with alpinestar min have lasted 5 years now . my spool boots lasted one northern ride and the sole ground right off on an angle

[Lou Girardin]

I wear Jimmy Choo.

I DO love those. But I love my Manolo Blahniks more.
We really MUST get together for a latte and talk shoes dearie.
Would you like to hook those heels over my pillion pegs one day?

[The_Dover]

Sorry Lou, I'm doing brunch with Finn this sunday.

I'll check my filofax and see if I can slot you in next weekend.

I'll have my people call your people.

[Scouse]

Affeminetman get some Styl Martin boots they are waterproof and if you get the styl safe type they are all leather none of this poxy multi colourd plastic shit like sidi

No such thing as waterproof boots. It's a delusion. What you need are GAITERS. From the friendly Army suprlus in K road opposite the barzoubous bristols.

[The_Dover]

Ixion, have you got shares in that Army Surplus store?

Always with the frickin gaiters.............

[kiwifruit]

Whats wrong with sidi boots? Im in the market for a set of new boots, was going to consider the sidis.....

[The_Dover]

Mine are less than a year old and are fucked.

Stylmartins look pretty sweet.

If they are waterproof i'll buy a pair for that price!

[Quasievil]

If they are waterproof i'll buy a pair for that price!They are supposed to be but I aint making any promises on any such thing, they have the high waterproof liner etc, but depends on how you wear them etc

[R6_kid]

got me some stylmartins from lou at amps. No complaints yet, just that i fell off a minimoto and scuffed the toe, otherwise they are fine. If you have your foot in the right place on the peg instead of trying to look hardcore with scraped toes the toe sliders wear correctly too.

[Lou Girardin]

So, did you get your boots?

[aff-man]

So, did you get your boots?

Yip. Gpt me some oxtars from motomail. And some cheapies from quasi for weekday use. The oxtars were more or less exactly what I wanted in my price range so that worked out really well. The Sidi equvalent wasn't as good, but also looked at the top end sidi's and although they are cool, they are just not practicle.

[knight rider]

Put it this way for that kinda dosh best thing you are looking at for a road/race type boot are the ones Quasi is selling. Unlike my oxtars for the weekend riding they actually have a decent sole so you can wear them just about everywhere. A decent branded road/race boot will start at about $350.

[knight rider]

Thanks I have contacted Quasi & I can get some nice ones for abour $150 which usually sell for $200

Did he tell you those "special" ones are cheap cause of a certain interesting cosmetic quality? hahahaha
