Review written by Derrick Cho, member of the 2012 Duke’s Cycle Cannondale LapDogs Race Team, MTB Squad.

Having owned a pair of Dragons a few years back I’ve been racing in the Bontrager RXL Mountain shoes for the last two seasons, because well frankly I got a deal on them when I bought my Trek Top Fuel. While the RXL’s are fine shoes, comfortable and a nice fit, they were ready for replacement at the start of this season.

Thanks to the great sponsor opportunity we have with the Duke’s Cycle Cannondale LapDogs Race Team, I was able to get into a pair of new SIDI Dragon’s this season. As soon as I got onto the trails and put them through a few O-Cups I knew there was no going back. The close fit, comfort and seamless power transfer to the pedals are all hallmarks of SIDI’s design, attention to detail and devotion to the quality of their products.

With (2) SIDI’s in the house, one for indoor training (Dominator), one for racing (Dragon), I’m a happy SIDI boy. Welcome back, SIDI.
