Shoe Testing

After a week of testing on spring break(in Moab) this is what the shoes look like.
3 of the original 8 tread pieces came off, most on the first day riding slick rock. I had to walk up most all of the climbs there due to a worn front chain ring. On the later days of testing they did great, it was only when I was walking on steep slick rock when tread failed.

I have removed the remaining tread and glue and cleaned the surface for re-gluing, this time with an high strength epoxy. I will post again when the shoes are done (may be awhile, school work before bikes).
