I've been looking at SIDI's for about a year (something always seems to be needed first - now it's tires). For the money I prefer the Strada Evo or the Vertebra II to the B-One.

The Strada Evo is fully waterproof and only costs $20 more. The Vert. II has a lot more crash protection than the B-One for about $40 more. If you are going with the Power Ranger look you might as well go all the way.

I wear Vertabra II, in all black. They squeak like he11! But they're comfortable, and crash worthy, so I'll deal with the pack of little mice that follow me around when I wear them... Squeak! Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!

My Verts were sqeaky too. So, I rubbed just a tiny bit of mink oil where the plastic plates overlap. Totally eliminated the noise. Now I can sneak around ninja style in my Sidis.

and stiff as a board...come to think of it they suck.

I've got the Vert II's as well...I love them, they broke in really fast, Sidi makes good stuff, I've got three pairs of their cycling shoes.

Can you clue me in? I haven't been able to find them below $225 with free shipping.

 

[Tarik]

Yeah, me too. I'm trying to get good boots for less than $200.

"Absolutely Free Shipping!" says it on their site; $200.00 for the Strada.

Thanks scooby. Looks like a good deal.
If you had a choice, what would it be?
B-One
Vertebra-2
Strada

I'd give up some "espresso bar dress-style" for added protection - meaning the Vert. would probably fit the bill best?
These will be my first boots, so I'm a little green. After 5-6 years of riding in Doc Martens, maybe it's time to get some real protection going.

The things I like about the b-one are the replaceable protector on the outside of the forefoot. I scrape my nike's now when I'm riding fairly aggresively. Also, dealer had one pair of the grey/black's (no too racerboy looking) in my size and has them on hold for me for $182 including tax.

 

[froggert]

i've currently got a pair of stradas and have some vert 2 airs on the way. the stradas are nice when you have to walk around a bit and don't look too bad with jeans at work. they don't offer the same level of protection as the vertabras, though.

 

[Tarik]

It's a done deal guys. I just ordered Vert. 2's from my local shop and got them for $205!
They should be here in a week. I can't wait. Goodie goodie
Thanks again,
T.

Thanks! That's a great deal. Anyone ever order from Crossroadpowersports before?

Keith,
Don't underestimate Valley. Consistently, I get better deals through them than I do through online stores. Tell them your "new bike" discount is still active. Heck, it's been a year for me and still milk that "discount"
