Very painful shoes, for me impossible to use. After changing to Sidi Dominator 4 mega pain was gone.

First off i should say that i got these on a 50% off discount so dont be suprised if you have to pay up to 75 but these shoes are great!
Weaknesses:
None
Similar Products Used:
Wal-Mart beater shoes haha
Bike Setup:
Gary Fisher Marlin, Shimano PD-M520L pedals, and a WTB RocketV Race saddle.
Bottom Line:
This is a great shoe for the first time clipless, goes great with the shmano PD-M502L pedals, comfortable, and they look sharp. I would definately reccomend that you buy these shoes, especially if you can find them on sale for 35 bucks like i did, i really lucked out, remember...after every ride...brush your teeth...no one likes a mud mouth ;-)

Purchased At:
Andy Jordans Bikes
Strengths:
Extreamly comfortable, Good stiff sole. Good bang for your buck. If you don't mind spending another $70 then I would get the shimanos that have the crank on the side to tighen down. But not everyone is willing to drop $140 on MTB shoes. The MO71 provides a good, well constructed shoe for a reasonable price
Weaknesses:
Every blue moon the toung works itself over to the side. If you have your straps good and tight, this won't happen.

But not everyone is willing to drop $140 on MTB shoes. The MO71 provides a good, well constructed shoe for a reasonable price. They seem to be holding up quite nicely. They also work very well in mud, and breath quite well....

Bottom Line:
Good shoe for the first time clipper, fair price, spd pedals can be had for cheap. I've only had problems with the bottom of my foot going a little numb below the cleat, but that's probably my fault for riding like I do
