MX238 GRAVEL SALE

Very comfortable shoe. Lots of toe room so no more hot spots

Excellent shoes

I have a pair of CX238 road bike shoes which fit perfectly and I love (EU 44), so thought I’d try the MX238 for my gravel bike given they use the same last. Unfortunately the identical size was slightly too narrow around the toebox and my toes were touching the top of the shoe. I swapped for a pair half size larger EU 44.5) and these fit great. Excellent quality as usual.

Nice shoe but wide everywhere

I don't have anywhere local to try these on, so took a gamble and went through the online size method a couple of times to be sure. And they fit nicely in terms of overall length and width around the toes. However, the heel is very wide. I'm trying to use adhesive pads to fix this problem but it's not ideal. I understand having narrow and wide heel lasts would probably be prohibitive but it would be nice if heel width was listed in the size guide. That way at least it's not a surprise. With that said, they are very well made. The upper finish is lovely, the sole is nice and stiff so I'm not suffering hotspots any more and reversible BOA is handy for little adjustments while riding. After 150km the microfiber upper is a bit stiffer than I'd like, I'm hoping it softens up slightly with more use.
