I have the Genius 5 road mega in size 46. I like them. I agree that the pointy toe is a little weird and my pinky toes get a little pinched...maybe the Lorica will stretch with time (?). I like the adjustable straps and have no issue with them...but in a perfect world, I would like it if the strap was 1/2 and inch further from my anke...more like on top of my foot and with a wider, more padded strap. I feel the strap pinches a little up by my ankle. The part where you say the rest of the shoe is too wide can be taken in somewhat by adjusting the straps.
