there is one issue with shimano shoes- if you have wide feet they likely won't work.

Dude- Unless your racing, I'd say drop that whole stiff sole XC business, and buy some of these supercomfy 661s(SPD compatible):

dont like the lace up...the specialized i posted recently is a bit much w/ the CF sole but it's nice to have a semi stiff shoe for pedaling...not good for freeriding but definitely good for climbing.

Nothing beats Specialized Body Geometry in my experience.
For all you downhill donkeys Specialized makes a pretty sweet mid-top version with ankle bone protection too...I think it's called the BG TRAIL 110. http://www.specialized.com/bc/SBCEqP...jsp?spid=26132 Looks about 7 times better than the Shimano version, plus it's got BG. I've seen all types at the Path. |

FYI The Jensens deal on Shimano M181's are a little better as until the end of November, you get an additional 10% off when you buy in the store from 5:00 to 7:00, PLUS their latest mailer (which they have sitting on the counter) has a coupon for an additional $5 off!!! Net cost before tax is about $67.
