Reviews over the

Mavic Aksium

These were recommended by a friend who also has narrow feet - aside from my hideously expensive Dromarti's they are the only pair to fit me well. They are light, stiff, do require some bedding in and the ventilation is effective. Whilst I agree that laces and chain rings aren't always the best of buddies, tucking them under the elastic on the tongue solves this perfectly. Equally you have the option for different coloured laces to pimp your shoe - and as every cyclist knows, it's looking good that really matters - and these shoes (I got the grey ones) do look great. Looking at the longevity, the only issue I can see is on the underside. The toe and heel pads are quite soft and grippy so will likely wear down.
