Where these shoes really that comfortable that he didnt want to try anymore on? The answer is yes! I bought the common comparable size for women, figuring these were just plain enough to not matter. It should read that once the tire is snugly fitted to the frame, you will need to lift the resistance unit up to the back tire and tighten the thingy that looks like a long screw with a black knob on the end (this part is never mentioned in the manual). It doesnt feel cheap at all, and seems to be sturdy without being too heavy. Also ich habe mir diesen Taillentrainer gekauft um beim abnehmen an den richtigen stelln zu helfen die lieferung war sehr schnell und es war gut verpackt ich drage normale 38-40 und habe eine schmale tailie deswegen habe ih mit den Trainer in m geholtzu er ist wirklih eng also sollte man nach der größen Tabele gehen und dann eine nummer gröser bestellen durh die 3 verschiedenen hacken kann man das dann optimal einstellenbei mir passt er gerade so aber nicht geuetsch oder eingeschnürt ist bequem Being tethered isnt ideal but its a lot better than the triple thickness cable on the Vive. The charging stand is a God-send and keeps the headset constantly charged without me having to think about it. btw, its waterproof for those of you that feel the need to keep it close to sources of water (for whatever reason) and are about as co-ordinated as a brick through a window. Even blatantly obvious ones that should have been caught by QC. Too expensive for what it really is though.
