    did you inquire at DSG??

    and how much does a pair cost???

    The bottm part that touches the floor is narrower than most boots so feel a little unstable while walking. Also you have to take short strides while walking as you really cannot stretch you legs.
    i'd like to know... are these AXO's comfortable to walk in?
    as in... would i end up with the sole of my foot hurting?

    how long would you say are these good to walk in??

      I did enquire but unfortunately they don't have those.
      They said that the replacement sliders would be available in a while but they are of the same material.
      So will have to look for the titanium ones in the international market.

      Im not very sure.
      I havent really walked a lot to speak about the sole hurting.
      The base is a little hard but its not really that bad.
      I guess the only problem will be actually walking while taking many short strides which is a little wierd. I dont think any physical pain will be inflicted.

      But will let you know in a few days once i spend some time wearing them.

        i am from kolkata. i am highly disappointed coz we dont have any good bike accesories showroom in kolkata no planet dsg, no cramster etc.
        i am interested in buying a jacket from planet dsg but to add to my owes they dont ship to kolkata.. kolkata is a renowned metro and one of the oldest city in the country.. y shld we be devoid of good gears?
        We are more than willing to sell goods to you but West Bengal sales tax laws come in the way. You, our customer are required to send us WB sales tax form 50 before you make your purchase so that it can be attached with the goods while shipping. As procuring the document from sales tax dept is a hassle for most customers, they do not send the same for the shipment and a courier without the form is held by WB sales tax dept in transit and not delivered.

        If you can procure the tax form and send us for your purchase, we will be glad to send your goods. I have attached a copy of a form received this week from another customer to give you an idea. As you will notice, it has the goods and their value mentioned on the form itself.

        Boots require a few days of use to break-in just like any pair of regular shoes. They will get even more comfortable thereafter.

            RJay's has one water proof priced around 4K. I too am waiting to hear from Zulfi, if it can be fixed on C250R.

            • I can see that they have saddlebags online for 2.1 K which fits on R15, if they can fit on CBR250, they would be a choise, not too expensive either.

                  The pleasure is when your rear wheel slides, and you bring it back; and when the front wheel lifts, you take your time bringing it back.

                          which model is this? you can search this model on web for the price and how to identify the genuine stuff..

                          you can check some scoyco knuckled gloves here..Gloves

                          It takes more love to share the saddle than it does to share the bed :)

                              i bought axo guard from Karol Bagh itself..from Chopra Automobiles & it cost me 725Rs..
                              Guys...i just got this on AXO site...http://www.axosport.com/en/products/...ee-guard/tmkp/

                              seeing it...i doubt if the helmetshoppe is selling genuine stuff...check the straps...the padding....all looks so low grade in the ebay ones....sheeesh!! when will they stop playing with lives of others! it just sucks!

                              i think i will finally buy scoyco k11 or k07 from raw adventures..
