Strengths:    price, stiffness, ratchet, looks, fits true to size.

Weaknesses:    very slippery on pavement, could use a rubber bumper on the heel for grip and to reduce wear.

Bottom Line:   
Cheap (discontinued) carbon soled shoe that's very stiff with excellent power transfer. Snug fit for a medium width foot, but not too tight. Very flat in the toe box (top to bottom), which allows less wiggle room. Good closure system (ratchet mech. on the Altea II plus). Looks good.

Strengths:    Fit good, even with a wide foot (sized up one euro size for that)
Easy straps, so easy a chimp could do it :p
Good heel cupping
Ventilation
Price
2 and 3 bolt compatible


Weaknesses:    Carbon sole scuffs up easily, but that happens with any shoe.

Bottom Line:   
Good shoe. One of the few I was able to find in a very large size (49) at a decent price. Simple closure system, holds my heels in well, ventilated nicely too. Very stiff, great power transfer
