I often see cheaper carbon soled shoes on Nashbar and other sites on sale for low $100, and sometimes under that. Brands are typically Lake, Exustar, and others. Anybody try these and care to comment on how good/bad they went for you?

I paid like $140 for my LG Futuras and they work fine (they aren't from Nashbar, but they also aren't terribly expensive). Also, Bonktown regularly sells $300+ Shimano and LG shoes for under $150, it'll get you a quality pair for a pretty good price.
