Strengths: Great fit, thanks to the buckle and strap system. They have stiff soles, but yet they are easy to walk in. Reflective strips on back of shoe.
Weaknesses: Maybe I’m rough on my shoes, but after riding with them for about a year, some of the seems have began to tear.
Bottom Line:
They were great shoes while they lasted, but after a year of some racing/touring, commuting, and messengering in them they've began to fall apart. There's no doubt that I've subjected these shoes to some rough conditions, but for your average cyclist, I would still recommend these shoes.
