    Favorite Trail:flat rock ranch
    Duration Product Used:3 months
    Price Paid: $70.00
    Purchased At:inernet
    Strengths:velcro straps are fast and easy, ventilated toe keeps feet dry, composite sole, toe cleates available
    Weaknesses:slippery on rocks, slight heel movement under motion, rocks and sand tend to get into shoe by the heel
    Similar Products Used:none, 1st pair of clipless
    Bike Setup:fuji thrill 2.0, stylo crank, vuelta xpr wheels, fizik aliante seat, fsa carbon post, x9 r der, x7 front der and shifters, recon 351 u-turn coil, maxxis crossmark tires, cane creek is-8 headset, xt cassette
    Bottom Line:great shoe for the money. all my friends work at bike shops and recommended sidi for my first shoe. silver in color, spd clips on shoe. good, durable shoe that can be put to the test. no problem so far an i ride pretty much every other day approximately 10-15 trail miles. great shoe for the money paid but would not spend $150 on these. too many quality shoes available on the net for under $100.

    Favorite Trail:Djouce
    Duration Product Used:6 months
    Price Paid: $150.00
    Purchased At:Chainreaction
    Strengths:Good Fit
    Weaknesses:Poor Quality 'Leather' Lorica uppers
    Slippy plastic sole if you need to ride unclipped
    Not for winter use - vents everywhere
    Similar Products Used:Shimano, 661
    Bottom Line:I bought these as an XC race shoe. They are comfortable, however the 'Leather' tore on the side after no more than 50 hours use. They were like new apart from the tear, having only been used a handful of times.
    I returned them to Chain Reaction Cycles, who wouldn't honour the warranty. I would have expected better from both Sidi and Chainreaction. Won't be buying Sidi again.

    Favorite Trail:cathedral pines
    Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
    Price Paid: $135.00
    Purchased At:lbs
    Strengths:quality, fit, comfort.
    Weaknesses:price, slippery sole.
    Similar Products Used:lake mx something or other, specialized bg tahoe.
    Bike Setup:jamis dakar xc comp, specialized stumpjumper hardtail, both stock.
    Bottom Line:the sidi bullet 2 is a well made shoe, fit and comfort as good as any. I have owned two other pairs of bike shoes which performed every bit as well as the sidi's for half the price, so only three chilis for value. if you have a need to take a couple of pedal strokes while unclipped, these shoes tend to very easily slip off of the pedals.

    Favorite Trail:Town Run Trail Park
    Duration Product Used:2 Years
    Price Paid: $120.00
    Strengths:Fit and Function
    Weaknesses:Insole, can get squeaky
    Similar Products Used:Lake, Time, Nike, AXO
    Bike Setup:MTB - Hardtail Gary Fisher. Cross - Redline. TT - Quintana Roo PR7
    Bottom Line:Added a grey Superfeet insole for some arch support and have used these shoes exclusively ever since. Somehow this shoe fits when I wear heavy wool socks or when I do not wear any socks. I have used it for almost two years for all of my riding - mtb, cross and road. Its stiff enough, comfortable enough and manages to fit well in all seasons so that I have not needed or wanted a different shoe.

    I will always stick with SIDI based on this shoe.

    I give it 4.5 for the overall only b/c the insole that came with it is so weak.

    Favorite Trail:any
    Duration Product Used:3 months
    Price Paid: $120.00
    Purchased At:online
    Strengths:light, stiff,comfortable,price???
    Weaknesses:weak material, maybe good for a road geek but i've put less than 500 miles on these and I have tears all over the toes, maybe i should get off and walk the rocky stuff
    Similar Products Used:shimano, lasted for around 3-4 years before stitching came apart
    Bike Setup:simple, light, can take anything I throw at it
    Bottom Line:decent enough shoe if you don't anticipate getting into any rocky situations. sucks ass if you want to get off your bike and hike around a bit

    Favorite Trail:The one I'm on
    Duration Product Used:6 months
    Price Paid: $150.00
    Purchased At:Gear and Training, (on line)
    Strengths:Comfort,fit,transfer of power to pedals, light weight, stiff soles, Great look.
    quality shoe (it's a Sidi)
    Weaknesses:a little slippery on hard surfaces, not really a drawback, just have to be aware
    Similar Products Used:None
    Bike Setup:Trek 7300 stock, cat eye computer, Shimano PD M540 clipless pedals and Time XE's (go back and forth)
    Bottom Line:My first crack at cycling shoes and clipless pedals.
    Very happy with both. I can ride for 3 miles or ten miles and not think about my feet at all. I have 8.5 EEE feet(42.5 Mega). I should be so lucky that every pair of shoes I bought fit like my Sidi's. If you want a pair of cycling shoes to deliver power where it's supposed to be, your pedals, shoes that look good, and will last a long time, these are for you.

    Date Reviewed: May 18, 2006
    Favorite Trail:Houffalize
    Duration Product Used:Less than 1 month
    Price Paid: $99.00
    Strengths:Stiffness of the sole, looks, crafmanship
    Weaknesses:Walking, narrow sole
    Similar Products Used:The usual Shimano hell, Lake
    Bike Setup:Trek Fuel 90/ marzocchi, hayes, mavic, electronic cruisecontrol, blabla.
    Bottom Line:At last I bought a serious mountainbikeshoe, not a walking shoe witch man can use on a bike. So, walking is ridicolous with this pair but who wants to walk! It's a Sidi so it is good value for money. So if you are a fanatic biker, not a weekend warrior who'll stop every half an houre for a drink, buy it.
