E-bike shoes.

https://bikerumor.com/2020/07/28/first-look-gaerne-g-taser-g-ray-lead-out-e-bike-ready-all-mountain-bike-shoe-range/

This is like 29er specific saddles all over again, isnt it?

Erm, bit of a marketing fail to have them not on an e-bike then!

Slightly corrective look about them which seems appropriate. 🙂

Thought this thread was going to be about these. Why yes, they are real imitation diamonds on my shoes...

Agree E-bike shoes are much stupider though.

Flat pedal shoes that don’t have laces flapping around catching brambles and collecting mud? Ridiculous idea

#E****erteering has landed. Pretty special colour schemes going on there. Single boa, what a cop out, should be two to get the right tension across your foot.

From the article;

Gaerne sent us one of the first pair of G.Tasers to give them a try. I’ve put in a few trail rides on the new shoes – although no pedal-assist for us yet. (I don’t actually have an eMTB, so I’ve had to pedal under my own power.)

Are they shaped like feet? Seems very few shoes are.

I think this is full inversion as MTB marketing disappears up its own bottom.

Do they make ebike specific shorts yet? Where the men’s version has no room for balls?

(I don’t think this really, in case anyone was actually wondering)

It makes sense when you think about it - they would also need a really wide waist and skinny leg sections, for the fat guys with atrophied thigh muscles...

The chamois pad should probably be absorbent too
