- my shoe is the cheap Pricepoint Sette Rival:

- i have had absolutely zero problems, EXCEPT for a cover nut coming off a pair of Candies... i emailed Crank Bros., told 'em my problem, and within the same day a customer service rep replied... sent me a rebuild kit at no charge...

- i challenge other manufacturers to beat that kind of service!
