Review on Giro Privateer R Men's Cycling Shoes: Experience Unparalleled Performance and Comfort by Larry Simpson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Great shoe until it gives up

These Giro Terraduros were comfortable, had good power transfer and ran like an enduro boot. The surrounding rubber floor then tore off the plate on both shoes. They could not bear to ride outside the cave in our area and quickly succumbed to punishment. I really liked these shoes and seriously considered replacing my sturdy but minimalist Pearl Izumi with them. I can ride about two seasons on Zhemchug, and I hardly have enough for two months on Giraud.

Pros
  • Hands Free
Cons
  • Out of fashion
