Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Roclite 315 are my favs. Just bought a pair of mudclaws, which should be in good use this winter. Will have to check out X-claws next time.

I think you'll be lucky to find a pair of X-Claws for sale, although I did see some in the Harrogate branch of Up & Running the other day at a big discount. You probably meant the X-Talon Ultra 260 didn't you?

if you do go for 260s I'd recommend trying for size first.

I've had to go down a 1/2 to 1 size compared to my other inov-8s, and if I was using them for short, fast stuff (if only...) I'd probably go a half smaller still as they still don't seem to hold my foot tightly.

I resemble that comment. :-)

Also a fair point. Great for muddy moors, and even track and road, but maybe not steep rocky descents.

Some very sad news in CumbriAndy's latest blog 😥 Fell running has sadly lost a very decent and significant figure. RIP Pete Bland.
