Strengths:
Cheap, comfy, nice fit, stiff sole. Style appealing to kids and bmx-types.
Weaknesses:
See below.
Bottom Line:
A nice shoe at a good price, but there's a problem if you're going to mount SPD-style cleats, which is probably why they're so cheap. The recess in the outsole for the cleat is so deep that the cleat won't stick out enough to engage the pedal. So you have to shim the cleat out so it'll stick out far enough. Doable, but kind of a hassle. If you don't mind and want a decent, cheap shoe, then I'd say that you might like these. If you don't have the time or inclination to hassle with it, get something else.
