Korben Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 Well after a slight "Melting Incident" at Willow and Akey's today I have purchased some of thesehttp://www.thevisorshop.com/acatalog/S_noir.jpgTCX Competition S... Look good and CE Approved. Quote
Guest Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 Look great, and not too "showy"I recently got myself a pair of Alpinstars SM4 and well happy with 'em... so much support etc. compared to my previous crappy Nitro ones.Watch out for the exhausts Quote
Korben Posted May 10, 2009 Author Posted May 10, 2009 Yeah, they had some with Blue on them, but I don't like too much like that.Current ones I have are pretty awesome..... One's just a bit melted... Quote
Stu Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 they look good mate they are very supportive boots i had a pair of theirs a few years back just keep an eye on the vertebrea on the back mine snapped and i know a few others that did but that was on an olde pair so they maybe miles better now Quote
techno Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 Ha didnt take you long to replace them!!!Make sure next time you keep the boots off the exhaust! Quote
Korben Posted May 11, 2009 Author Posted May 11, 2009 may i ask how you melted your old ones? lol Playing around on Willow and Akeys little off road bikes and due to my size my right boot was resting on the exhaust.... Didn't look too bad until I pulled back the velcro strip and a chunk of it stayed there while the rest moved.... Quote
Korben Posted May 11, 2009 Author Posted May 11, 2009 I was meant to take a picture of em yesterday, but forgot. Will see if I can get one tonight!! Quote
MAGS Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 TCX are the new version of OXTARS , I had OXTARS TCS for 4 years now and theyre like slippers, very comfy and had 1 bad off in them they stood up very well indeed. Quote
Korben Posted May 11, 2009 Author Posted May 11, 2009 Yes mate. My current ones are Oxtar's so that's why I went for the TCX... Quote
bigup Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 Nice boots mateGot a pair of Oxtar TCS, pretty awesome! Quote
cleedubber Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 I've got some Oxtars...cracking bootsLiking those too, as been said, very nice and subtle Quote
Korben Posted May 11, 2009 Author Posted May 11, 2009 I am just hoping they ain't as noisy as my current ones.. They squeak constantly!! Quote
cleedubber Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 I am just hoping they ain't as noisy as my current ones.. They squeak constantly!! ha ha, yes that is an issue with the oxtars....good coating with furniture polish apparently, doesnt seem to get it rid of it completely though Quote
Korben Posted May 11, 2009 Author Posted May 11, 2009 I was told putting vaseline on the joints would solve the problem... Didn't. Quote
techno Posted May 11, 2009 Posted May 11, 2009 I had a pair of those too nothing works..for any length of time! Quote
mojobanana Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 I am just hoping they ain't as noisy as my current ones.. They squeak constantly!!Then stop standing on mice! Quote

(Please ignore my chavvy tracksuit bottoms... They are comfy and never worn outdoors...)http://i524.photobucket.com/albums/cc324/bikerkorben/New%20boots/TCXBoots004.jpgGreat idea is the zip which has a velcro piece on it... My old ones, the zip used to hang out of the velcro straps.http://i524.photobucket.com/albums/cc324/bikerkorben/New%20boots/TCXBoots006.jpghttp://i524.photobucket.com/albums/cc324/bikerkorben/New%20boots/TCXBoots007.jpghttp://i524.photobucket.com/albums/cc324/bikerkorben/New%20boots/TCXBoots009.jpghttp://i524.photobucket.com/albums/cc324/bikerkorben/New%20boots/TCXBoots010.jpghttp://i524.photobucket.com/albums/cc324/bikerkorben/New%20boots/TCXBoots011.jpghttp://i524.photobucket.com/albums/cc324/bikerkorben/New%20boots/TCXBoots012.jpgAnyone any ideas why this bit comes off?http://i524.photobucket.com/albums/cc324/bikerkorben/New%20boots/TCXBoots013.jpghttp://i524.photobucket.com/albums/cc324/bikerkorben/New%20boots/TCXBoots015.jpghttp://i524.photobucket.com/albums/cc324/bikerkorben/New%20boots/TCXBoots018.jpg Quote

Korben Posted May 13, 2009 Author Posted May 13, 2009 Just plastic sliders, but titanium are available... May be treating myself to some. Quote
