I kind of like the white, but they were too white for me without much other flair. I went with the Steel/Lux rainbow colors. They are pretty wild, even spiffier than my 2007 Genius 6.6′s in white/silver. Great shoes, though I’m still working on cleat placement, sock thickness, and insoles to get them just right.

Anyone else have sizing issues with the newer Ergo 2s? I’d worn 43 in Sidis until now, but needed 42s in these. Are Sidis, like a lot of clothes in the U.S. “growing” so that the ever-growing Americans don’t feel as if they themselves are growing? I keep on having to size down in clothes. Soon I’m going to be in womens!

Frank,

You haven’t seen his collection of ‘riding dresses’ though…

Dude, get those shoes, they look mint. Well, raspberry maybe.

@K Man My recollection of "Wizard of Oz" is shakey at best, but I don't remember the part where Dorothy shredded a big-ass descent and used all 130mm of travel in her front suspension before hucking off a cliff and doing a back-flip in her red Sidi's. My point is, I think you can do the red Sidi's without looking like Dorothy.

Speaking of all things Sidi ,
New bike = new shoes.The new Dragon SRS Carbon Sidi MTB are in stock in my size. They are bright bright red. Don’t know if I can do it. I don’t think it would be long before my name was Dorothy.

I had the same dilemna this week. A customer had won a heap of Specialized gear, including some white S Works shoes, which he offered to me for below our cost price. They were 44s, which is my size in Sidi, but in Spesh I need a 43. The temptation to take them was almost too much. Plus I’m kinda into my Sidis, even though I’m badly in need of a newer, whiter pair! In the end our boss swapped them for some rims for the guys fixie.

Those are some sweet shoes, brother! I can’t believe how sweet that finish looks, and how amazingly perfect those shots of red are placed on those shoes! That is some serious Italian sweetness! DAYUM!

Hell, if they’re too snug for you, I’ll take ‘em off your hands…
