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
Creato: 19 agosto 2024Il recensore ha acquistato le Sidebike Atop Carbon Road Shoes da AliExpress per circa 90 £ consegnate e le ha indossate per otto mesi e 2.000 miglia. Loda la suola in carbonio integrale, il sistema di allacciatura duale Atop, il peso ridotto, la durata e il comfort, considerandole un ottimo rapporto qualità-prezzo rispetto alle scarpe di marca. Nota che i plantari non offrono supporto e che non sono disponibili in versione wide, ma nel complesso le consiglia vivamente.
Riepilogo IA
Pros
- La suola in carbonio integrale è molto rigida, offrendo una sensazione di connessione durante gli sprint
- Il sistema di allacciatura duale Atop è buono quanto il Boa: fluido, facile da regolare al volo e durevole
- Leggerezza: 491 grammi per paio senza tacchette, 100 grammi in meno rispetto alle scarpe Bontrager Physique Tempo R5 Overcurve di dimensioni comparabili

Cons
- I plantari sono in schiuma morbida senza supporto, anche se sono comodi e ben ventilati
- Non disponibili in versione wide, quindi potrebbero non adattarsi a ciclisti che necessitano scarpe più larghe
- Il prezzo dopo le spese post-Brexit era appena sotto le 90 £, cosa che il recensore ha trovato difficile da accettare, definendosi un tirchio
