BontCompoComment to win! Bont Riot Buckle Carbon Road Shoes
Grab one of three pair of these heat-moldable carbon shoes from Bont. They say that the Riot "takes entry-level road cycling shoes to the next level" and they certainly scored well in our test with performance and comfort being brilliant for the £99 price point!
The competition runs from today until 22nd July and all you have to do is pop a comment down below. It couldn't be more simple.
Bont will supply three lucky winners with a free pair of Riot shoes in either black or white with available sizes ranging from EU36-EU50. The shoes are worth £99, so this is would be a very nice mid-season present!
And the winners are...

Congratulations to you, we'll be in touch!
Earlier this year, I gave my test pair a great review, highlighting the huge amount of tech in the shoe. The best feature, I think, is the ability to customise the fit of the shoes by heat-molding them. This really creates a tub around the foot, resulting in a very stiff pedaling platform and plenty of comfort.
Bont says that the Riot delivers "competition-level fit and construction with a micro-adjustable buckle and Velcro retention system".
It's certainly a bold claim, but one that stands up when you look at the other road shoe options around the Riot's £99 price point. Nothing else remotely close offers customisable fit and it'd be hard to find the stiffness levels either.

could do with a new pair of bonts!
I predict a RIOT
Yes please. Size 7!
I have no idea how that heat sizing thing works, it sounds like magic.
I'd love to own some magic shoes. I'd be like a cycling Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz.
Shoes shoes shoes....
I wish I could win one of these competitions - maybe one day!
Why not.
Yes please
n+2 is usually better
Those are nice!
These shoes would be a big step up from my current ones which would be great.
Pop me in the draw also please.
I too would also like to win the shoes, thank you muchly.
Excellent shoes! Bradley Wiggins would be jealous!
I want a Bont!
Got a new bike on the way...black and white as it happens....new pair of matching shoes would be the icing!
Yes pleeeeeeeeeease!
I love my current (4+ years old) pair of Bont Riot shoes, but they have done a lot of miles are really REALLY in need of replacement... except I'm totally skint so they will have to soldier on diligently until either I win a nice new pair (please!) or I can somewhow muster up the finds to replace them.
In fact I need to lose some weight too, so perhaps I should just stop eating for a while and fund the new shoes with the money saved, unless I get lucky and some kind soul at Bont decides that they can provide me with a new pair! I would be ever so ever so gratelful, and wouldn't have to go hungry!
I need some new shoes!
Gotta do it
Putting out as few watts as I do I need all the help I can get.
Bontiful
