Mine fitted perfectly but the bath tub chassis took a while to get used to.
Good shoe tho.

I have a pair of specialized carbons and bought the s works due to price the other day.

They are night and day.

Fit like a glove.

somone on this forum suggested loosening them a tad, something to try before spending big bucks or mucking around with adjustment/positions etc.

worked for me.

When I molded my Vaypor I put 3 pairs of socks and did the straps super tight.
I avoided any areas of rubbing and tightness that way.

Hey guys, just a short update on where I'm at.

Went out yesterday to make a round of the local LBSs to get a feel of what's out there. And I blew my wad on the first shop where I found the Spez 2012 swork on runout! Got it for 299, not as good as WA or QLD. But still, can't wait to try it out :)

Didn't mange to try the Bont first as most shops stocking it seem to be closed. Ah well, hopefully it won't proved to be an expensive mistake.
