from Bend, Oregon, USA Date Reviewed: December 18, 2004 Strengths: Supa comfy! Once they're dialed in (literally), they're awesome. I use them for trail riding, but also for commuting and road riding. The buckles are great, as are the dial-in tighteners (don't know the real name). These shoes breathe very well in the summer, and the sole is pretty stiff. Comfy, comfy, comfy! Weaknesses: The lugs...why the heck do they wear out so fast? They were ready to be replaced in 1 year's time, and that's lame. BTW, the name "SRS" is misleading; you don't actually replace the soles, you replace the tread of the soles, AKA the lugs. And you WILL be replacing them, unless you NEVER get off your bike. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 2 Years Price Paid: $170.00 Similar Products Used: Nike velcro-up shoes. They were OK, too, but I haven't bought anything from the sweatshop kings since. Bike Setup: Ask me tomorrow...

from heck Date Reviewed: August 23, 2004 Strengths: (* for the Sidi Dragons )nice and lightweight, very secure system that holds your foot in place, the SRS is a good concept. Weaknesses: The soles do seem to wear down fast, and the metal used in the factory bolts is cheap. In the time I have owned these shoes, I have had one of the screws break off in the sole, which basically means, they used cheap metal in the factory screws Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month Price Paid: $200.00 Purchased At: online Similar Products Used: My previous specialized shoes lasted almost three years, I got new shoes b/c the soles were worn down to where my pedal cleat was scraping the ground

from Brighton, Sussex, England Date Reviewed: December 12, 2003 Strengths: Glove like fit - due to spider and techo buckles Shoes dry out quickly when wet Feet stay nice and cool in very hot weather No Velcro to wear out Sole Replacment System - when the soles wear out you can buy replacement soles. Light Weight Stiff Sole Weaknesses: Sole compound is much softer than non SRS soles - my old SIDI technos soles lasted 6 years - whereas the SRS soles are already very worn after just 6 month's of riding. Foot insole is too thin - But better than no insert at all as SIDI's used to be. Not a shoe for use in cold weather unless you wear water proof socks and and overshoe - venting that is so good for summer is not good for winter use Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Monarch Crest - Colorado Duration Product Used: 6 months Price Paid: $158.00 Purchased At: www.chainreactioncycles.com Similar Products Used: Sidi Techno Bike Setup: Ellsworth Truth 04+ Talas RLC Forx + Full XTR 04 Disk Groupset & wheels + Raceface Deux Stem and XY Post + Chris King Headset + Easton EA70 Bars + Terry Ti-Fly Saddle,

from Monument, Colorado, USA Date Reviewed: October 23, 2003 Strengths: Stiff mid sole and strong upper. Weaknesses: The outsole is very weak. Some people say "You shouldn't be hiking in cyling shoes" and I agree... BUT, if you can say that you never get off the bike to trek up some sick, nasty spots then you're riding Nancy boy trails! Push yourself harder and get of the sidewalks. The outsole is softer than a stick of butter and shreads instantly. The Dominators are a much better shoe. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: Mt. Herman's trail 715 Duration Product Used: 6 months Price Paid: $180.00 Purchased At: Colorado Cyclist Similar Products Used: Sidi dominators, Lake mx400 Bike Setup: Which one??

from wellington, MA Date Reviewed: May 10, 2003 Strengths: beautiful looks, unbelievable adjustability and lightness. I wish normal shoes were made like this. I am tempted to unscrew the soles and wear them as tennis shoes. These shoes are unbelievable!! Weaknesses: well...you know it would be nice not to have a philips head screw in the bottom of the sole. philips head screws are not reliable and the grid tends to get messed up easily. These screws are of high quality though, and I don't anticipate changing the soles at all since I'm not a racer Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: Less than 1 month Price Paid: $180.00 Purchased At: ebay Similar Products Used: my normal shoes Bike Setup: egg beater triple ti - nice pedals - purchased reasonably from ebay
