Strengths: stiff and responsive, easy to get into and tighten or loosen depending on riding conditionsWeaknesses: noneBottom Line: These are great shoes. I used to never ride a carbon soled shoe on my mtn bike. I always use carbon on my roadie but once I moved to these babies my pedal stroke is much more efficient and these are very responsive. Very good shoe and provided sufficient ventilation for summer riding. I purchased the shoe for the 100 mile White Rim ride in a day and for the Leadville 100 last year and the shoe worked great for both grueling rides. It even worked well when I needed to get off and climb the steep hills and hike my bike. The cleats on the front are great for hiking if needed. Overall this is a great shoe.

Strengths: These fit well and look sharp.Weaknesses: Not enough ventilation for summer riding. After an hour in these there are puddles forming from sweat. They don't feel as sturdy as the Specialized shoes I used before.Bottom Line: I'll probably check out other brands for the next pair.

Strengths: Carbon insert. Spikes come with shoes (Sidi's didn't for some reason)Weaknesses: NoneBottom Line: I was deciding between the Sidi Dominator, Bontrager RL, and this shoe. The Sidi was too expensive and the Bonti didn't fit right. I have wide, short feet with high arches, and these fit very nicely. So far, I haven't experienced any of the problems the other reviewers have had. These are nice mountain biking shoes.

from San diegoDate Reviewed: February 10, 2009
Strengths: It didnt fall off my feet. it held the cleat. ratchet seemed good.Weaknesses: made my left big toe go numb on every ride and bleed under the nail.Bottom Line: I didnt even sell these things. I gave them to someone who doesnt ride much. I think thats the best way I could insult those shoes. I have had Sidi's (that are a size smaller) for 4 months now and I can see the line in where my toe stopped bleeding. the top half is red and the bottom half looks normal. glad i didnt loose the nail. maybe the custom fit ones would have worked but i just spent the money for a good shoe and I love them.

Strengths: ?Weaknesses: poor fit
stitching
buckleBottom Line: This shoe is junk. Never fit quite right - a little too wide, toes tend to be pinched. Buckle on left shoe has broken twice. Stitching completley blew out on other shoe. And, not very comfortable on long rides. For the money, one should get best quality. My Settes are better quality. I'm tough on shoes, but these should have lasted longer for the money.
