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!

Rich, to be fair you can't remember where you live most days.

I can't comment on the trivent as I have never used it. In all my years I have used 2 pairs of lakes and 1 pair of SWorks. All I care about is are they firm.

Are the Trivent ones the things that look like sandals? Aesthetically I think they are great.

Much as I love all thinks SIDI their tri shoes are weird. Look like one flap goes in-to-out and one goes out-to -in.

Is the Tri vent the one with a little drawbridge instead of a heel thing, so allegedly you save 3 nanoseconds sliding your foot in compared to a normal heel (then waste 74 seconds turning a little dial to lift the drawbridge back up once in.....).

I was looking at the trivent last night, can confirm drawbridge hingmy with dial etc. I think they might be a touch open-toed Jesus-boot for the local climate.

Did I imagine it or did Shimano used to do SPD sandals with the strapline 'shave your toes'?

I don't think I've ever seen Rich anywhere other than Cambridge University track. I just assumed he lived there.
