Nimbl?

[micky]

That will improve the fitting a lot!

Size and weight please?

Does anyone know how the cleat position compares to the S-phyres?

I like to run the cleats all the way back on my Rc903s and am curious if i'd be able to match the position on the nimbls

Don't you get a huge amount of toe overlap that way? I have mine set back only about 25% and on my C64, pedaling during tight, slow speed turns always results in tire residue on my toes.

New nimbles have slidable cleat holes, so quite a lot of adjustment, definitely on par with shimano if not better

I do actually and it hurts to have black tyre stains on my white S-Phyres after every ride
Switching to a 165mm crank makes it somewhat bearable.

Finally managed to get my hands on a pair, initial impressions are very good. Coming from Giro Imperials which have a very flexible upper, the Nimbl’s feel A LOT more stable. I love the low profile toebox which is average sized. I had to get used to the carbon sole (tub) that wraps around the heel, but after a couple of rides I don’t feel it anymore. The stock insoles however are junk so definitely get some that support your feet

Might be picking up an exact pair today. Never owned all white shoes though, not sure I'm ready for that kind of commitment. But their all black offerings are just that, all black and kinda blah looking. I have tried them on before, never had a chance to ride with them unfortunately. Your initial thoughts are reassuring.

[spdntrxi]

as a imperials user myself, did you stay with the same sizing ?

[robbosmans]

Yeah, I measured my feet just in case and checked with the chart on the site but it was the same

Ok bit the bullet and picked up a pair of the white ultimate pro edition. DMT KR0 I wear a 45, the Nimbl I went with a 45.5. Won't be riding them for a week or so unfortunately. But the loving room test the Nimbl has much better heel support vs the DMT. Riding it was never a problem, just an observation. I cannot just pull the Nimbls off, foot is locked in very well. The shoes construction fit and finish is excellent. Now to find a leather protectant and stock up some baby wipes to keep these things clean.

First ride tomorrow. Retul footbeds fitted this morning. On my cleat setup ride these shoes are extremely comfortable. My for is locked in with room to wiggle my toes. The footbeds made a substantial difference to fit in a good way, no issues with the extra volume. Stock insoles have almost zero arch support.

I want to give the nimbl shoes a shot not really satisfied with my s-phyres and s-works torch shoes but have a hard time deciding between the their different models.

Curiously none of the pros appear to be riding the new Ultimate Glide.

Does anyone have any feedback on what the pros/cons are for the Exceed/Ultimate/Glide?

Looked to me like WVA was riding a pair of Nimbl Exceed shoes on his last day at this year Vuelta.
