$43.00 | | Strengths: | Stiff Sole Recessed cleat design Reasonably comfortable to walk in off-bike | | Weaknesses: | No toe cleats Sole not waterproof (cleat plate area) | | Bottom Line: | These shoes are a great entry levels shoe. It gets the job done, and cleat attachment is very simple. My only complaints- the sole does not have a waterproof gasket for the cleat plate, and the lack of toe cleats. This is a problem for me becuase parts of my fav. trails tend to be mud, and it's hard to run the bike up a hill when your shoes get little more traction than your tires. Other than these few flaws the are great, and they are a great value for the money. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$24.00 | | Purchased At: | Nashbar | | Strengths: | Easy on off Reasonably stiff Work with Speedplay Frog Cleats | | Weaknesses: | A little tight in the toe box No reflective material | | Similar Products Used: | Diadora Jalapeno Specialized something Cheap Nashbar house brand | | Bike Setup: | 1980s Schwinn Prologue (x2) | | Bottom Line: | I was looking for a reasonably inexpensive shoe I could use with my Speedplay Frogs. Saw these at the Nashbar site for $24, so I figured I'd give it a shot. A little chunky, but fairly stiff. I really like the two strap closure system, but I think all shoes should have reflective materials sewn in. Also, one of the few shoes I've tried that work well with Frogs. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$47.00 | | Purchased At: | Supergo.com | | Strengths: | Two velcro straps make for easy entry exit, comfortable, easy to walk in yet plenty stiff for riding, look like cool bike shoes, low price | | Weaknesses: | Nothing really, but my 98A cleat has to be extremely tight to keep it from moving when I twist the shoe to clip out. | | Similar Products Used: | These are my first cycling shoes, used basketball shoes previously | | Bike Setup: | Raleigh Grand Prix with Shimano 105 componets (It's a road bike but I like the MTB shoes and pedals better) | | Bottom Line: | Love 'em, and they fit my semi-wide foot OK if I wear thin socks.
For reference: Size 45 fits my 10.5 - 11 American size foot.
Would have given 4.5 chilis if I could. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$60.00 | | Purchased At: | KLM - Rochester Hills | | Strengths: | Price - comfort - tread pattern for both street and dirt. | | Weaknesses: | No reflective material - cold below 55 or so degrees. Spend money on booties, and you don't have to worry about wearing multiple layers of socks. | | Similar Products Used: | none | | Bike Setup: | Scwinn Hybrid commuter w/ USPD electric assist. | | Bottom Line: | Good value, very comfortable, works well with my platform / spd pedals. Most MTB riders may like this, unless they feel they need to pay more for the same AXO quality. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
