I'll contact Inov-8 and ask them directly when the 2 fits were made available. There is also a grip issue with the X-Talons. Nowhere near as grippy as the previous model.

SPR Jan 2015 10:15pm, 1 Jan 2015 19,802 posts	0 SPR RS - I should also read better as I see you already knew that the precision fit was the old fit embarrassed I bought my F-lite 195s at the beginning of 2013 and they were precision fit. The 192s I just got started as just standard fit, but they've introduced a precision fit for it.
Red Squirrel Jan 2015 10:17pm, 1 Jan 2015 17,767 posts	0 Red Squirrel OK - so either the running shop neglected to tell me about the 2 new fits or Inov-8 neglected to educate them. I rarely buy on-line but there's an argument here to do that and get up-to-date info on replacement shoes. (I only go to Pete Bland anyway and they're an independent UK sho[.)
