Sidebike carbon cycle shoes from AliExpress VS Fizik R5. Both cost £90, but which is the better buy?

My sizes for Siroko clothing:
Jersey & Jackets – M, Bib shorts – L
I have ALWAYS wanted a pair of carbon fibre cycle shoes, but the cost from the big brands like Specialised, Sidi, or Fizik is a bit too much for me. You can easily pay upwards of £200 for a pair, so when I saw a set of carbon road bike shoes from a brand called Sidebike on AliExpress, I had to give them a go.
They cost £90 and have a fully carbon fibre outsole. So as a result, they’re lightweight, and super stiff. Plus they look amazing, have a great lacing system (called Atop), and feel really comfortable to ride in!
BUT how to they compare to my previous favourites, the Fizik Tempo R5 overcurve shoes?
Well after using them for the last 2000 miles, I’ll give you my verdict!

I love cycling, and I love getting pro cycling kit for less. If it’s cheap, from China, and made of carbon fibre, I’m interested!

Sidebike Atop Carbon Road Shoes
Créé le : 19 août 2024L'évaluateur a acheté les chaussures Sidebike Atop Carbon Road Shoes sur AliExpress pour environ 90 £ livrées et les a portées pendant huit mois et 2 000 miles. Il loue leur semelle extérieure en fibre de carbone intégrale, leur système de laçage double Atop, leur faible poids, leur durabilité et leur confort, les considérant comme un excellent rapport qualité-prix par rapport aux chaussures de marque. Il note que les semelles intérieures ne offrent aucun soutien et qu'elles n'existent pas en largeur, mais les recommande globalement vivement.
Résumé IA
Pros
- La semelle extérieure en fibre de carbone intégrale est très rigide, offrant une sensation de connexion lors des sprints
- Le système de laçage double Atop est aussi bon que Boa : fluide, facile à ajuster en cours de route et durable
- Léger : 491 grammes par paire sans cales, 100 grammes de moins que les chaussures Bontrager Physique Tempo R5 Overcurve de taille comparable

Cons
- Les semelles intérieures sont en mousse souple sans aucun soutien, bien qu'elles soient confortables et bien ventilées
- Non disponible en largeur, donc peut ne pas convenir aux cyclistes ayant besoin de chaussures plus larges
- Le prix après les frais post-Brexit était juste en dessous de 90 £, ce que l'évaluateur a eu du mal à avaler en tant que personne se décrivant comme radine
