Strengths:
These are Diadora shoes. Not Canondale MTBR!
Weaknesses:
Can't tighten the ratchet strap far enough to be snug. The sole is weak plastic.
Similar Products Used:
A few older pairs of Diadora chilis and habeneros.
Bike Setup:
08' Sinister Ridge, Zoke ETA 55, XT, Mavic, Formula.
Bottom Line:
These aren't Canondale shoes! I bought these shoes because I've always had good luck with and liked diadora shoes. Not anymore. The ratchet strap can't be tightend enough. I road these shoes 6 times on my new ride and broke the sole under the cleat. Poop. Honestly, I would have tolerated them strap problem and rode these for a while. I'm going to turn them in and change brands.
