    Submitted by Chuck a Weekend Warrior from Longmont, CO
    Date Reviewed: April 28, 2008
    Favorite Trail:Kokapelli
    Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
    Price Paid: $50.00
    Purchased At:Online retailer
    Strengths:Bought these sight unseen as an '07 closeout because I tried on the 08 version at my LBS. Big mistake! The '07 is much narrower in the toe box than the current model. I debated over the more technical shoe versus the casual, "comfortable" nature of these shoes. Overall I think it is a nice shoe but the quality is not what I would expect from Adidas. The velcro strap will break, not sure when, but it is a crappy design and hits me in the wrong place. I would like the strap to pull the sole tight to the base of my foot, but this one just pinches the circulation on the top of my foot without holding the sole at all. They look nice, when they are clean, but I don't think they will provide much traction in wet or muddy conditions - which we don't get much of out here.
    Weaknesses:Velcro strap design/placement
    Similar Products Used:shimano
    Bike Setup:Rocky Mountain Slayer with cane creek axis2 pedals
    Bottom Line:Good entry level shoe for weekend warrior

    Submitted by Sean a Cross Country Rider from Poway, CA
    Date Reviewed: September 2, 2007
    Favorite Trail:Anything Technical
    Duration Product Used:Tested or demo'ed only
    Price Paid: $60.00
    Purchased At:Beyond Bikes (20% off Sale)
    Strengths:Venting, adjustable top strap (holds laces), stiff sole, grippy rubber tread. Good alternative for someone not wanting a full-on race SPD shoe.
    Weaknesses:Narrow shoe, symmetrically pointed toe was uncomfortable by pushing my big toe inward. Narrow tread width on heal reminded me of track shoes.
    Similar Products Used:Cannondale Roam
    Bike Setup:Which ever one I'm riding
    Bottom Line:I really liked the sytle of these shoes, but after wearing them a few times in my house they just weren't feeling quite right (read narrow). I have normal width feet, but I was already a size larger than I would normally wear. Returned shoes before using them on the bike.

    Good shoe for the retail price, but will need to try them for fitting.

    Date Reviewed: September 21, 2006
    Favorite Trail:Deer Creek Park
    Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
    Price Paid: $47.00
    Purchased At:Bicycle Pedl'r
    Strengths:Comfy, snug, good thick sole, and they are about as light as the cross-training sneakers I wear around town.
    Weaknesses:None so far.
    Similar Products Used:None, this is my first clip-in shoe.
    Bike Setup:RMB Slayer50, stock except seat.
    Bottom Line:They were 40% off due to the store moving and being 2006 model. Two pairs left and one was my size. They feel comfortable and I could wear them as normal everyday-type shoes.
