Keen, if you are paying attention, know this: I will pay double your regular price to get my old fit back. The mount fit nice and snug on the Giant Connect Stem. I was able to do the assembly on my own, it took about 45 min to an hour for me to complete. Und am Anfang ist es deshalb auch schwierig, die richtige Weiteneinstellung der drei Riemen zu finden. The padding is nice; my feet can no longer survive in shoes without padding in them. I think it would be a little uncomfortable with thicker socks. This is a super bargain! Went through 4 pair. I tried to stretch them out but I dont believe that will compensate for the narrowness of the toe. I measured my waist and went strictly according to the sizing guide, especially after reading all the reviews to do that.
