I've never owned a pair of road cycling shoes before. These seem to be a really great price. So, what's wrong with them?

I've got the R088's which are also going for a good price. I like the ratchet to get them nice and tight which I prefer. I'd echo that they are on the narrow side.

For that price I don't think you can go wrong with those.

Basic road shoes, nothing fancy that's why they're cheap. But they'll more than do the job, I've got the ro88 as well but I wish I'd gone for the one down with the Velcro straps, the ratchet doesn't add much for me.

I had ro88's and thought they were great. Had to go up a size cos of the narrowness though.
