[QUOTE="mattb348, post: 952430, member: 62675"] I started wearing mx boots for the first time recently (fox forma pro's) and I noticed that everything feels different now, as in shifting and braking. My question is this: are you supposed to use the little metal lip on the tip of the boots to shift? or use the actual toe? Currently I am using the actual toe of the boot to shift, but its so thick that sometimes I miss gears becuase my boot holds the shifting lever up so high that it isn't able to upshift when I push up, becuase it never went down all the way. Also, my feet actually get stuck under the shifter sometimes! The only way around this I have found is to always keep my foot pointed down. Unfortunetly I have been messing up alot of awesome wheelies lately becuase of it not shifting when its up in a wheelie. I am on pavement and go from 1st to 2nd in a wheelie, but almost always miss 3rd (and ruin a great wheelie) becuase of this issue. Any suggestions? am I sposed to just be using the steel lip on the tip of the boot to shift or something? [/QUOTE]
