Would you pick Nike Zoom Fly or Streak 6 for a 5k race? Pace will be ~4min/km.

Streak LT3 or LT4 for 5k would be best IMO if you want to stick to Nike.
streak
OP here. Thanks for the responses. I already have Streak 6 and Zoom Fly so the question was between these two. Should I expect the Zoom Fly to be easier on the calves? Does anybody have any experience?

I read this quickly and assumed you were comparing the Vaporfly and Streak...the answer would be not the Vaporfly. And not the Zoom Fly either. Yeah, they're lightish, and stiffer than a Mormon missionary in a strip club, but they're not really a racing flat, regardless of what the insole says. (The local guys around me in the Vaporflys at 5Ks and 1-milers aren't winning, fwiw.) Anyway, if you usually race in trainers, then Zoom Fly away. Otherwise, the Streak LT is a better choice....or just the Streak.

Streak 6. Definitely not the Zoom Fly. Other than looks, I did not experience any redeeming qualities in the Zoom Fly.
The zooms smashed up one of my Achilles pretty bad.
Zoome Streak 6 over Zoom Fly.
Adidas Takumi Sen over them all for a 5k.
