the one thing i will say about duke's is that they always have the high end replacement parts that are hard to find anywhere else (like cleats or rebuild kits for egg beaters).
I had to go with new shoes ultimately as the non-proprietary cleats didn't even fit the Time shoes I had.... talk about using gear far longer than it's functional design. I think they changed the design to SPD compatible with a year or two....I of, course had to ride those shoes for like another eight years before NEEDING to change the cleats... I guess a bloody great solid hunk of brass 1/2 an inch think, was a little too tough, and maaaaybe not quite designed-for-obsolescence enough for Time's accounting dept.
