KHS/SPOX/MANITOU-TI | | Bottom Line: | I bought the high-topped Look shoes because I needed some ankle protection. The shoes are a nice fit, reasonably stiff, and provide great traction off the bike. Now I break everything I touch, so I judge products on how long it takes them to break, because they will break, its just a matter of time. These did not last long, about 2 months of hard riding. Hey for 150 bucks, that's not so good! If you don't ride hard, well I still think they blow, they cracked in half at the cleat, and the sole was seperating into 2 pieces. Don't do it. | Overall Rating: |

Sidi, Specialized | | Bottom Line: | I love these shoes! I've ridden them hard for two years and they have held up great. The front AND REAR steel spikes have shown very little wear and the lugs have lasted very well and this is over very rocky terrain at times. I wasn't sure how long they were going to last but now I'm noticing a little separation in the sole but this is after two years with an average of 300 miles/week. Great Shoe! | | Overall Rating: |
