Warm!
August 19, 2012
"Great quality, very thick and warm. They do seem to shrink a little though, I should have ordered a XL instead of a LRG. Cant beat the price though, I think I might get another!"
 
Sidi Crossfire SRS boots are a high-tech boot that will stand up to the use and abuse and continue to offer superior protection and comfort. It all starts with an understanding of what it takes to develop a boot that has the best form and function and the Sidi Crossfire SRS boots have nailed it. To start, the Crossfire SRS have an external Dual Flex system to allow for fluid movement front and back, but extremely rigid side to side movement. Sidi designed the Crossfire SRS boots realizing riders will be putting these boots through the stresses involved with competitive and aggressive riding by making the high wear parts to be replaceable. The soles on the Sidi Crossfire SRS are the simplest replacement system on the market. With a standard Phillips screw driver the sole comes off for easy replacement. Sidi offers multiple types of soles to match your needs. To continue raising the bar on safety, Sidi uses a composite insole on the Crossfire SRS boots which doesnt deteriorate like a steel shank can. Sidi also includes a removable arch support to match the riders foot type. No rider is the same, which is why Sidi designed the calf of the Crossfire SRS boots to adjust, making the boot fit better for increased protection and comfort. Sidi uses their own Technomicro on the Crossfire SRS boots. Technomicro is a composite microfiber material created from strands that are so fine, each one is less than one thousandth the thickness of silk. The cam-lock buckles on the Sidi Crossfire SRS are independent providing less resistance and better range of motion. The cam-lock buckles are attached to straps with position memory, making adjusting the strap length a one-time thing. The Crossfire SRS boots are lined with a Cambrelle material to keep your feet nice and cozy. Sidi took advantage of their high-tech design to eliminate the need for an inner booty on the Crossfire SRS boots. By eliminating the inner booty the Crossfire SRS boots are able to shave weight and keep a slender body for easier control and better feedback.

Best boots I have ever owned!
August 19, 2012
"I had been considering buying a pair of Sidi's for years and never did because of the high price. Once my old Tec 8’s wore out, I finally broke down and got a pair of SRS's. I am amazed at how much better they are. The way these boots grip the frame of my bike is unreal. Once I started riding with these boots, I immediately noticed that I had a lot more control and could ride more aggressively. On the track, I can now catch riders that could just slip away from me before. I would imagine the Alpinestar Tec 10’s offer a similar amount of grip as well as the Sidi crossfire TA’s. The quality of the boots seems to be great also, and I feel I won’t need a pair of boots for a long time. One thing I did notice is that even though they are very comfortable, they are a little snug for the size I ordered, I think someone with wide feet might want a size bigger. I am normally a 10 and a half, so I ordered an 11 and luckily had no problems with fitment, other than being a little on the snug side. Although, as they get more worn in, I have a feeling they will fit perfect. I have noticed the same concerns in other reviews and that was one thing that made it hard for me to order them since my feet are a little on the wide side. Overall though, I say these top of the line boots are where it’s at, if you want good gear that will help improve your speed and control these will definitely help."
 
The softest Street Grip available. The Cush Street grips combine an ultra soft outer layer with a more durable inner layer to provide both exceptional comfort and improved bar adhesion. Ultra Soft Durometer outer layer. Durable inner layer for better bar adhesion. Smooth, tacky surface for optimal control. Reinforced ends for extended grip life.

they look good
August 19, 2012
"These Cush grips look pretty good with some good bar ends. However, I have never had a problem with my hands going numb before buyin these grips. I think I will be changing them out very soon."
 
Harder density against the bar to keep the grip from slipping and soft-gel density where needed. Length: 120 mm.

"These grips wear out pretty fast. I needed to replace them only about a month after instaling them."
