Same here. Unsuccessful for the Evo SL so purchased the ZF6. Glad to see the runner from this small country. Moein!

Yeah, I scoured the internet for one and signed up for another Raffle system at Zalando. But this whole drop was beginning to annoy me a bit for just a Training Shoe! Have to admit, I' m not actually from Luxembourg. I live right at the German border but I do like to film some of my videos here. So many cool locations!

Nice place. Love the emptiness and peace in a city.

This was actually Friday just 2 days ago(mistakenly said Sunday in the beginning for some reason). But National Holiday in Luxembourg so the same effect. This is basically the Business District of the city, so very empty on days where nobody is at work.

Sounds promising buddy! Finally Nike have got their “super trainer” in line with the others? Lets hope so 🤞

@robin29991 2 ай бұрын

Absolutely, this shoe is now totally competitive in that range. Though after my Longrun this morning, I do think I might prefer the Mach X2, at least for faster Training. It just feels a bit more propulsive to me...

was looking for a shoe to add into the rotation with vaporfly 3 and invincible 3. this looks like a perfect fit

@robin29991 2 ай бұрын

This should do really well then. Had the Invincible 1 and 2 and always found them really fun shoes. But they are quite locked into Easy/Recovery Runs. Pair it with the ZF6 and you've pretty much got everything covered there:)

Looks promising. Good in a way if the Peg Plus has a somewhat different feel despite being similar weight then should complement each other. Odd a shoe with a carbon plate bends that much but probably good in more of a racer/trainer. I have ordered a pair and should be able to try them in about a week.

@robin29991 2 ай бұрын

If it is Carbon, then it must be very thin. It's not quite as flexible as the Endorphin Speed but much more than the Vaporfly and the Alphafly, which is even stiffer. I did my Longrun in it this morning and it really is a very different shoe to the Pegasus Plus. Only the weight is the same. Felt quite dense cushioning, no ground feel, less snap but more bounce. You're right, they would definitely make a good Training Duo.

It is carbon

Nice. If you feel like it, let me know how it does for you. Used it for today's Longrun and still very happy.

Just recently got into running, have been using a pair of new balance rebel v4 and running 3km in about 20 minutes keeping a zone 2 pace. I got these and I feel like I can’t maintain that slow a pace, It’s like they make me run quicker even with the plate being softer I do still notice the push. Hopefully soon I’ll be able to run with them and keep in a zone 2 pace.

@robin29991 2 ай бұрын

@@Will-PJ Ah nice, sounds like it's going quite well then. I love the Rebel 4... But totally agree, this is just a faster, more aggressive shoe.

@Will-PJ 2 ай бұрын

@ defo excited to see my cardio fitness improve so I can utilise this aggressiveness and still maintain my zone 2

The plate saves my metatarsal from rocks on the roads ❤

Plus this SR02 is soft, but dense. No chance of bottoming this out for you.

@JL_bryan Ай бұрын

hello! do you think this could be added into a rotation with the hoka mach 6s? and how would you compare the ride with the mach 6s? cheers!

@robin29991 Ай бұрын

Yeah, absolutely a great combo! I have the Mach 6 as well. It's much softer and more flexible. Great shoe for easy, shorter Runs where you could use this for your Workouts or Longruns.

My only concern is that the ZoomX in my Vaporfly V2 lost the pop at around 100 miles.. You mentioned that it might have been the plate died and not the foam ❓

@robin29991 2 ай бұрын

@@i.p2088 Yeah, might be the plate losing stiffness for you. Hard to say of course... I'm not worried about durability on this one for sure and will keep testing. But this really is mostly SR02 and not that much ZoomX anyway. The plate here is also much less rigid than in the Vaporfly to begin with.

@TimGrose 2 ай бұрын

Oh really. I was out in a 2.5 year old pair of VF2 yesterday that have done over 200 miles in and worked well enough. Got some others (and some VF1) over 300 miles and still usable.

@i.p2088 2 ай бұрын

My Vaporfly V2 just went flat during the run.. Finished now run but it was like having a flat tire.. The heel just did not bounce back up..

@robin29991 2 ай бұрын

Or it could be some kind of shoe defect maybe? The plate loses stiffness over time but nothing as bad as you describe. Like Tim says, they're totally still good to run in after a lot of mileage. Maybe something is wrong with yours...@@i.p2088
