I have the Cat1 Gavia Carbon, which looks like the same shoe except it has the ratchety-thing on the side. I like them, but have only used them in combination with my new SPD-SL pedals. And I also changed out the insole for one with more arch support to help deal with an on-and-off bout of plantar fasciitis.
