I recently purchased a Wahoo smart trainer from my LBS(local bike shop) and it didn't come with a cassette. My LBS told me the Shamino cassette I wanted was on back order and unavailable. Because of a medical condition I wanted to use my smart trainer right away. I checked with WESTERNBIKEWORKS and they had the cassette in stock that I was looking for and delivered it to me within a few days. I am grateful to have WESTERNBIKEWORKS as a supplier for my cycling needs.
So, after years of riding with cold wet feet I decided to give the Shimano MW501 a try. The first ride out the temperature was at 22 degrees and wet. With a wool pair of socks these shoes rocked. My feet were warm and dry, which is a first while riding for a long time. I used to put the bike up for the winter but not anymore.
Pros:
Waterproof, a thin layer of flannel type of material, with wool socks they will keep ur feet warm, grippy, sturdy, made to last
Cons:
Price (but you get what you pay for) and they run a size big (I wear a 13 so I ordered my typical 48, had to return them for a 47).
Bottom line. GET THEM if you are tired of cold wet feet.
Needed this disc rotor to replace on my Trek Bicycle. I shop at Western Bike Works all the time for bicycling items. It was actually a little difficult to get the items because of pandemic issues. Just put my name on a list and a few days later notified the items were available. Ordered a pair and a handful of days later they arrived. These rotors were exactly what I needed are on my bicycle and work fine.
Western Bike Works I find to be about the best store to order anything having to do with cycling. Their prices are fair and they will match any vendor price from previous orders I have made.
They are the best from my experience.
As more of a roadie, I like a stiff shoe that transfers power efficiently and doesn�t feel clunky and overbuilt like many mtb shoes. These are plenty stiff, not great for walking, but split the difference well between road and mtb shoes.
Fit was good out of the box, although a bit roomy over the arch. Tow box is ample, arch support good but upgraded to a higher end insole. Boa�s closures are nice, Velcro strap over forefoot seems dated, never gets adjusted. Slick design overall.
