Can I ask what the size of your bike is? Thanks!

Does it change the seat position? I bought the Suntour and it moves the seat way back, changing the reach to the handlebars. And yes, I pushed the seat all the way forward on the rails. Trying to find a better approach. Thanks.

I have two of these. I carry the tanto version every day

I couldn't find a regular OKC RTAKII knife anywhere (except ebay!) so I manage to find a 125th Anniversary Collector's Edition RTAKII. I really love this knife down to the very handles on it. I even chose it over the Esee Junglas and I paid almost $300 for my RTAKII but it serves me well and came in a black leather sheath. It actually ges well with my Esee 6. I love the steel on this knife, the 5160 on this knife is great. I honestly think that the Esee Junglas would either break or chip with the things I put my RTAKII through. The 5160 steel allows it to "bend" around serious knots and come out straight as an arrow. I think I will get a kydex sheath made for it because it certainly deserves a better sheath.

The clip will conform after a few weeks but in my pro experience , that winds up being a blessing if you ever lost or drop a good knife from up high. This knive is worth the break in period. I like a firm clip as i carry every day. A guy can work on it but for me i need a clip that dont get weak. Weak clips are my most avoidable situation. And This blade is crazy sharp as well as keeping a great edge a long time....cold steel's best imo......

To me this is the best combination: Lugged steel frame with modern components in the right places. My favourite two bikes are 10 speed, two-by, friction shifted and rim braked. One of them has a higher stem but I went the same way as you with another bike: Modern stem with adapter. I am 60 years old BTW... 😊

Turn your phone sideways

Nice bike

You have yours in carbon, and I'll keep mine in the s35vn. Then come back and review again. Bet you change your opinion., btw, s35vn keeps a better edge.

You carry an umbrella for 20% chance of rain, why not carry a flashlight for 100% chance it goin to be dark.

I absolutely luv mine! :-) Peace, Stiletto :-)

I have the same problem; the first pair started having holes after three months. Due to its comfort, I decided to give this product one more chance, but unfortunately, after only two months, my second pair started having holes again.

may i know your height sir?

👍 Good honest review. Thank you.

It’s not just about the doubles it’s about the type of belt you have. If you can attatch suspenders then it’ll be better but it’s better to get a duty belt.

Excellent video! I appreciate the changes you made to your bike. That bike was just too nice to abandon, great job!

Thanks for the review - short and sweet and very helpful

I have the same issue. Same spot.

Is there any garanty to replace the shoe when it is damaged in less than a year or so? Because I know Nike and some other brands do that.

does the waterproof version of this shoe add durability due to the different outer shell membrane? anyone know?

What's the lifespan of the piece of rubber?

The shower you mention helps with swelling except it is timed hot for several minutes then cold for a few.

i faced same problem like you mentioned

Thanks dude! Really appreciate the video!

I relize this video is a year old but include - Mylar Thermal Blanket (keep the body warm from going into shock) Also consider Celox Z-Fold Gauze. You can never have to much gauze which I also keep in my boo boo kit on my side.

My ripped 3 months after buying

Same issue with mine... never had a shoe rip so early on in their lifecycle. Mine ripped in front/top area where mesh meets suede like yours. Used them mostly as walking sneaker. Mine are the On 5 all black like your second pair. Good video. Love the comfort with the shoe, but I'm done with On. Back to Under Armour for me.

you should try their hiking boots, seems a lot tougher but they are about 200 dollars

I'm trying to wear mine until the bottom pods rip open. I walk about 5 miles a day one years later they are still good and comfortable

Hate the clip. Replaced it on Etsy. Happy now.

If your pouches are stiff leave your mags in your pouches for a few days while it’s put up they will adjust a little I work at esstac i make the rifle kywis I probably formed those inserts right there 🤣🤣

Hi Paul, I have been using the CloudFlows for three generations now and they pretty much all have the same issue as yours among other things that I have noticed. On all 3 gens, the mesh that meets with the sole also starts to split. I'm not sure why I didn't stop after my gen 1s lasting for 1 year. The fact that kept buying them every year probably makes me psycho haha, but I do love them. These will be my last One though. It's very ridiculous that these expensive shoes only last for like 2 minutes I have running shoes that are 2 years old with x3 the mileage and they are still going strong

Thank you

I had the same holes after wearing the shoes maybe 60-90 days over the course of a year. I was so disappointed I filed my first warranty claim for a pair of shoes ever. We’ll see what they say!

This is a really good folder for the woods imo . S35VN is a tough steel although I prefer the tool steels . It’s got Teflon washers , paper thin . They have work good for years for me . It’s so well liked they even make aftermarket aluminum or titanium scales .

Aluminum bushings? Not likely. Phosphorus bronze and/or Teflon.

Had mine for a month wore them just a few times and mine already have a hole in that same spot

Yes! Test your gear so it fails you now, and not when you *need* it. That is how I prove my good gear.

Totally agree with your comments and experience. Mine have gone in the same places on both shoes after limited use. On Clouds are super comfortable, but durability is dreadful, and not up to the quality required to perform their role. Mine have had reasonable use, and been looked after, but I can see a combination of poor design and manufacturing have shown On Clouds weakness. This is a universal problem across their products when using a mesh and membrane construction. I have both Salomon and Arcteryx shoes, designed and constructed in a similar manner. My Salomon Speedcross have been used as my go to trail shoe through super tough conditions and terrain, over many many miles and they have been superb. The upper is brilliantly made and constructed with no signs of wear at the crease like the On Cloud. Only the quick laces needed replacing through expected wear and tear. I will not hesitate to buy Salomon again. My Arcteryx have also shown to be well constructed, but not been worn to the same level, but so far so good. The wear issue combined with the fact that the sole design constantly picks up and retains stones, and pine cones as you walk/run means that I will not be buying or considering On Clouds again until the shoes improve, and On Cloud start to own the issues. Plenty of alternatives out there.

I absolutely love this knife, just to point out my blade is precisely centered. Also recently had it sharpened by a professional sharpener after about 12 months of use, and its razor sharp now, I really want to tanto lite version now!

Thanks for the heads up. I won't be wasting my £££.

I love this video. I saw a lot reviews about running shoes, but they only spoke about the feels, not the durability as yours. Thank you for your thorough review 👍

I've biked a few hundred miles with a G4 Thudbuster LT mounted to my Giant Talon 29/1. 1 weigh 220 lbs. and I use the Firm elastomer. I must say I absolutely love it ! It's a game changer for sure. It helps me pedal more miles for greater duration with much less discomfort. I ride mostly washed out / rutted rail - trails, no paved roads. It should absolutely be paired with a Thudglove to keep it clean which will help make it last longer. Thank You Paul Patriot for influencing my decision to install this awesome seat-post !

Thank you for this video and clearly showing the issues u have run into as i planned on using these for my belt, I'll prolly just go for the single AR and Pistol mag combo pouch now thank you for this !

Waiting until you have used your knife for several months is how every knife review SHOULD be done!!

Paul ..... I purchased this LD30 direct from Fenix in the Spring based on your review. Down to earth with zero hype. I have used it 5 months now, mostly for metal detecting, but general EDC as well. It is easily as good as you said, perhaps better. The light has taken abuse, mud covered so many times ...... a quick rinse when I get it home and its good. The 350 lumen setting is awesome for walking out of the forest in the dark on rock strew trails. The only thing I did was add a little grip tape on the body, it was a little slippery. Battery life is amazing with moderate use and the LD30 has never let me down, I love it. Thanks Paul !!!!!

Excellent video my friend ! I’m getting one this week , I’m stoked. Can u please tell me what model Cloud 9 saddle you’re using.

Had the same hole at the left shoe of the similar model. Plus the outsole get easily worn out. Comfortable to wear but seems it lasts a short time.

I agree with you on the comfort of the ONs. Got my first pair in 2018 while deployed to McAllen Texas. Yup, running in the rain and in the humidity made these very slippery, the traction was the worst. I did not experience any issues with holes on the sides; however, mine did wearout on the heel collar, right where my achilles heel rubbed against it as I run. It eventually wore out the fabric and I had a hole there. Anyone else experience the same?
