Alpine stars boots
So, I got me some of these kickarse bootenheimers but I'll be stuffenheimed if I can figure out how to adjust the straps out. I can push them in which is good except for when I need to adjust them back out.

Re: Alpine stars boots
whoop, wait a tic, just figured it out.
I tried doing the opposite to adjusting them in and it worked. funny that.
I'm now going to wear one of them on my head.

Re: Alpine stars boots
Hey Junior,
Just for your info.
If you destroy a strap on your Alps boots most bike shops wont know what fits them.
The old (pre 2006) Tech 8 or Tech 6 MX boot strap will fit the Alpinestars No Stop boot.
The Tech 8 strap has Alloy buckles compared to the Tech 6 (No Stop) strap which are plastic but work the same & fit the buckle base ok.
Likewise the buckle base is also available as a spare part as are the Strap retainers.
No Stop soles are harder to get & I've just ordered some as a "Special Order" out of Monza Imports (Alpinestar Importer for Australia).
Just about every Bike shop in Australia would have an account with Monza Imports.
Enjoy your flash new booties !!!!

Hey, cheers for the info gary, no doubt I'll need to replace them some time.
I could even accessorise and get some chrome buckles anyway lol.
but, sa the old saying goes, chrome wont get you home.
