Strengths:    Fairly stiff sole. Styling. Secure ratcheting system

Weaknesses:    Extreme hotspots due to tall toebox

Bottom Line:   
Great looking shoe (White and red). Sole seems to be fairly stiff, but the toebox is much too tall. I have had extreme hotspots with this shoe from day one, which is disappointing, to say the least

Date Reviewed: April 2, 2005

Strengths:    Stiff, hardcore race shoe.

Weaknesses:    No volume control, attention from Starsky and Hutch.

Price; I gottem for £50, £152 new in the UK.


Bottom Line:   
First up, I have the white and red version of this shoe.....Right, so the best material to make cycling shoes from would be white fabric. Not like they might ever encounter dirt or water is it?

In terms of appearance, if Huggy Bear wore cycling shoes, these are the ones he'd get; they jazz up your feet for real.

Performance/fitwise they are a deep shoe; I can get two pairs of insoles in and still waggle my toes, so cranking up the fasteners tends to cramp the ankle. Otherwise an extremely good road shoe, needing care to put on, but rewarding the user with a stiff powerful platform to blast away.
