Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

DMT Radial shoes

Anyone use these? Do they ride wide or narrow? Is the construction up to snuff.

I'm thinking about getting the speedplay option. Not sure if I'm up for white shoes though.

I had pair DMT RMX (still have 'em). I'd say they run "narrow."
I now use a pair of all white Northwave aerators, and they're a b'tch to keep even semi-clean.
anyway, that's a nice looking shoe.

fixed.

seems like a great deal for the price, or maybe i'm just jaded by sidi's inflated prices. they're 255g per shoe though, right? not for the pair?

To be honest, I don’t know. lol
They didn’t seem excessively wide to me.
I’ve used Sidi shoes before; they both fit me fine.

::Edit::

I just tried on my Sidi shoes, I'd say that the DMT shoes are just a bit wider--for whatever that's worth.
