I just handcrafted the best middle distance racing spikes. I took an old pair of el cheapo bowling shoes, traced the spike pattern of a pair of Zoom Milers on the sole, screwed some screws through, attached some tiny washers and nuts and sharpened the tips of the screws. The weigh in at 2.9 oz. I did a couple 400m intervals at my local track and they are by far the best spike I've ever run in. I may get some odd looks but who cares when I'm dusting everyone.
bowling shoes are not anywhere near 2.9 oz unless maybe you took out the soles

Oops...yes, you are indeed correct...those were my pro types...my 2.9 oz model was made with ballet slippers with some enforcement in the forefoot...
This morning I inserted some gel inserts - these spikes are sweet...I'm working on a logo for the sides...
