Hunting for cheap carbon soled shoes: is exustar the same as revel and cat-1?
Exustar seems to be a Chinese outfit selling cycling shoes.
Revel where the stiffest carbon soldd shoes I ever worn, also the cheapest.....
Wondering for size purposes if they are one and the same.....

can't tell you if they're the same, however i'm using the sr232 and it's a great shoe, however the insole leaves a bit to be desired, so i got some yoursole heat moldable insoles. love 'em. noticed that there's an e-bay seller getting rid of new ones cheap.

I picked up a pair of Exustar shoes on a whim a few years back. Not carbon-soled, but it turns out they are my favorite shoe for fit, firmness and durability.

How about Mavic Peletons for 99 dollars?

I rode these shoes for 2 years, they are amazingly good shoes for the money. If you don't care about weight, they are as good of quality as any shoes in the 100-250 dollar range IMO. Carbon sole + ratchet for 99 dollars is a steal.

I currently use these and love them: https://www.wiggle.co.uk/dhb-rc-carbo...cycling-shoes/
They were a bit cheaper when I bought them though.

Just bought these Exustars last week. I love them and they're super stiff. They were on sale for $65 when I bough them too, I don't think you can get carbon soled shoes for any cheaper than that. They run a little big thought, wish I would've gone a size smaller.
