I have been looking for some new Tri bike shoes, I'd like to be able to ride without socks to save some valuable time in my next OD...
I was looking at the Shimano TR51.
However I noticed on Wiggle the following comment "or longer distance events such as half and full Ironmans a road shoe could be a wise choice though."
I had planned on doing a 70.3 and maybe a full IM with these shoes.
Any one know what's wrong with tri shoes for longer events?
Thanks!

I'm not really sure the reason for choosing road shoes for middle/long distances, probably a comfort thing?
