    plus some ludicrously expensive straps:



    will change the way you think about clips and straps. just my preference.

    Sidi's are a pile of stinky poo,used them and they didnt last. If you are riding clipped in i recommend just getting a pair of chepo mtb shoes cause all shoes do end up going and for the price u pay on a pair of sidi's(poo)u can have at 2 pairs of actually quite decent shoes.

    i uselly go for mid ranged specialized or shimano cause dey iz da shit init blad!

    going to sidi dragons and time attaks over clips and sraps was the best thing i ever did to my bike. only ever used sidis, love them. i'm confused why some people carry a seccond pair of shoes to the pub/ office/ party all you need are sidis.

    how long you had em chris? do you ride fixed?

    once mine degraded they lost their stiffness and the soles [even the hard ones] wear away really quickly. this leads to losing the effectiveness of your brass time cleats, which leads to loss of control of your rear wheel. or in my [particularly dramatic] case launching myself head first down hills place.

    it was quite funny screwing up expensive floors with exposed screws though :smile:

    Spech' S-works (mtb) are the best ive ever used, better than shimanos i used to have and lasted allot longer than my flat mates Sidis.

    But for gods sake dont buy em full price, get last years ones on sale, then its reasonable.

    @ sleepy, its got to be around 10 months now, so not long term, mine are newish and made out of fancy materials and replaceable soles. had a scary popping out time cleat moment, but it thought me change my cleats when i think they look worn. all i did was rack my balls on the top tube.

    yeah, you should get some. every one knows why lance won the tour lighter more aerodynamic sack. I have taken it to the next level with carbon fiber, i expect to earn about 2 jobs per day more now.

    If anybody wants cheap SiDi, let me know.
