Strengths: Stiff, light, look ok, very adjustable.Weaknesses: The insole does nothing for people with high arches (I didn't think mine were that high . . . they seem pretty regular to me)Bottom Line: These are great shoes - but if you have high arches: listen up! My first ride with these shoes was terribly painful after 40 miles or so. I replaced the insoles with Superfeet and BINGO! No soreness, great ride, no hot spots, very good feel comfort and power-wise.
Favorite Ride: Long with hills

$250.00

Strengths: Comfortable. Great fit for medium volume foot. Stiff, efficient carbon sole. Durable, quality construction. (no rips, tears or loose threads after 20,000 miles.) Still white. Great Value.Weaknesses: Insole/ footbed. I replaced the stock footbed with a custom Rocket Seven carbon footbed which is an Awesome Value!
No replaceable heel bumpers.
Bottom Line: Excellent shoes. Durable, comfortable, attractive, stiff sole, conforming uppers. I've been wearing these shoes for over 20,000 miles and have found outstanding performance with them. I'm tempted to try the Sidi 6.6 carbons but I don't think the Sidi's can improve much on these Pro Carbon's.

Strengths: No flex at all!!!! I can tell a huge difference from my old shoes.Weaknesses: Not too comfy to walk in due to no flex. The footbed is not the greatest. I used my own.Bottom Line: Being too cheap and really disliking to adjust in a new pair of shoes, I had a non carbon pair of Sidi shoes for years. I now have a pair of carbon soled shoes and it is an immense difference. I can tell that I am more powerfull. Specilized euro size runs a little different from others. I usually take a 48, but I take a 47 in these.

Strengths: No flex, instantly comfy.Weaknesses: ???Bottom Line: I asked for a pair of entry level shoes, after spending $2300 on an "06 Madone 5.2. When they didn't fit, the salesman gave me these to try on. OMG. He gave them to me for the price of the entry levelers I was looking at ($69). I'll keep these as long as they will stay on my feet. NICE!
