I picked up a pair on Saturday for £18, fitted my Time cleats and had a splendid ride with them yesterday.

Worth getting a pair, even if just for emergencies. A nice stiff sole, they will be just right for walking up the steep singletrack sections of the Cannock Chase XC course.

Oh, I went to Lidl because they've got Cachaca at £13 a bottle. Not quite as good as Sagatiba, but makes a fine Caipirinha.

The shoes, not the Cachaca.
Dont know what that is.
Or Sagatiba.
Or Caipirinha.

my housemate used to bring cachasa back from brazil in lemonade bottles Lethal stuff!

Steep climbs at cannock chase? Am I thinking of the same place? Undulating would be an overstatement.

I got a pair last year, but they only lasted 6 months and I was using them as a back up pair. The cleat plate pulled out through the sole, trying the Aldi ones now.

I had a pair do the same as Shack, cleate plate tore out the bottom. Mine lasted nearly a year tho'.

Shame 'cos they were the best fitting shoes I'd had.

My Aldi ones lasted twice as long - would buy them again.

Lidl - it's a shop that sells stuff cheap. Stuff like Cahaca.
