    New boots?

    Hi all, Im looking for a new pair of boots and at the moment the cheaper the better...!!
    I have found a couple of budget priced boots and was wondering if anyone had any experience with either.
    1: Fly Racing "Stinger"
    2: Oneal Racing "Elements"

    Cheers.

    Fox trackers are about $300 I think. I got some W2's for about $300 and they have been pretty good. I just got some fox boots for free with my bike. They are pretty nice. I need to adjust the straps a little bit, but otherwise very nice. Very good ankle protection.

    re boots

    Gaerne, nothing better,


    try to avoid the trap of going for lesser quality at a cheaper size.


    what size are you ?

    my own fault really.

    I got some Fly 303's which look like last years version of the stingers, they lasted good. The O'Neil Elements are pretty bad.

    But suggest you listen to the guys who recommend you spend a bit extra, maybe not the SG10's though.

    Put it this way I got some Sidi Crossfires ( same league as the SG10's ) in the states for a good price & the different was dramatic, definitely worth stretching to 250-300 if you can, you can get Aplinestar Tech 4's for $325.

    o, thats not cool! i also own trackers. however mine are yet to fall to bits. hopefully they dont.

    is there any sort of warranty to protect us from shit like this?

    unless by falling to bits you mean worn out

    If your going to be doing alot of riding, then get the boots that best fit you
    i just have a pair of Oneal "Elements", i don't expect them to last long,
    but they seem to be holding up ok.
    CRC buckles from time to time, every little bit helps.
    The money i had i my wallet at the time made them the best boots in the world.
