Bont Riot MTB in wide
Due to the winter season I have not been on the bike with the Bont's but in the land of bike shoes I believe these will be the best option I have. They are nice looking and appear very well made. Comfortable fit made better with the heat molding option. While I do not have a high volume wide foot I need a shoe with a wide ball and toe section to alleviate any pressure to the sides of my feet. I wear Keens and Altras in non-cycling shoes. These are the closest bike shoes to a more natural foot shape that I have found. The toe box in wider and roomier, as is the ball of the foot, than any other bike shoe I have worn, including the wide version of Lakes which are a much less subtle material and taper at the toe. As indicated in many reviews the Bont sizing system and their recommendation would have lead to a shoe that was much to small. Most reviews I read recommended ordering a half to full size larger than other brands. I wore a 46 wide in Lake and ordered a 47 wide Bont, figuring that I could take up any slack with some padding. The 47 was a good choice, no extra padding needed as the shape of the shoe is spot on. They do have enough volume to add some insole cushion should I choose. Though I can't give a ride report I'm pretty impressed with the initial fit.

Motion Pro Spanner Nut Socket for swingarm
Firstly, it's unfortunate that you have to buy a product with such a specific purpose (thanks Suzuki). I'll get to use it every 4 years or 8000 miles. That said, the Motion Pro socket seems well made of strong material and did the job just fine for a lot less than the Suzuki part.
