Strengths: Fit me perfectly. Mesh upper provides good venting for summer riding.Weaknesses: Mesh upper lets in water and sand.....the price you pay for the nice venting.Bottom Line: These are my primary summer riding shoes. They are not suitable for cool weather riding so be prepared to buy winter shoes (I have Answer Kashmirs) if you buy these.
I like them enough that when I saw them on sale on the internets for cheap I bought another pair for when the first pair wears out.

Strengths: Comfortable. Affordable. Good Looking. EfficentWeaknesses: Not a very aggressive cleatBottom Line: These shoes have been great. I believe my old ones fit wrong so these feel awesome compared to them. I MTN bike about once a week during the season and these are sufficient for what I do.

from Greensburg, PA, USADate Reviewed: September 12, 2006
Strengths: Very comfortable shoe with plenty of room for your toes.Weaknesses: This shoe is designed as a recreational/fitness shoe and as such does not have a very agressive tread pattern.Bottom Line: This is an excellent shoe for commuting, touring, and recreational riding. Many shoes I tried did not have a wide enough toe box to be comfortable. These shoes are very comfortable and are sized accurately. I highly recommend these for everything but extreme off-road cycling where a more agressive tread would be in order.

Strengths: Venting is great, they work well.Weaknesses: The cost is high to me. Even though they are "cheap" compared to what else is on the market, I still felt $75 was a LOT of money to spend on a simple pair of shoes.Bottom Line: I have to rate these low on the Value rating due to what I consider to be a high cost. Unfortunately, I didn't see any cheaper options out there that carried this same brand reputation. $75 seems like a lot to spend on an entry level shoe if you ask me. They fit fine, although they make my size 12 feet look like aircraft carriers they are so long. I really like the venting on the top. Prior to getting my new pedals, I just wore tennis shoes and my feet never got well ventilated on a ride. I have no complaints with the functionality, these shoes worked great. I just wished they didn't cost so much.

Strengths: Light, durable, easy to put on, dries quick, doesn't stink, ok to walk inWeaknesses: Ugly, gets wet inside in rain and even after walking on a wet grass. Not quite right pedaling angle, at least for me.Bottom Line: A good pair of shoes for a beginner. You get what you pay for, and this product is considered to be a good buy. Want something better and performant... will have to pay more.

Strengths: Light, comfortable.Weaknesses: None so far.Bottom Line: Very comfortable on my foot, no hot spots. Very light and so far durable. I use the Shimano PD-520 pedals and the shoes work as well as I would've imagined them working. Very happy with this purchase so far.
No problems clipping in and out.
The shoes are really easy to walk around with and wouldn't be a problem if you break down in the middle of the woods and have to hike back a few miles.
