Gearman Posted June 11, 2012 Share Hi Guys,I'm trying to decide between the Olympic hurrican and Serfas Mens Trax shoes. There is not much difference in the price. The Serfas is a bit more multi-purpose, which is why I'm considering it. Factors to consider:* Durability* Comfort* Easy to clean* walking \ dismounting on rough terrain* shock absorbency on feet & legs (hard tail bike) I do appreciate your feedback. http://www.cycleteknix.co.za/uploads/olympic_hurricane_mtb.jpghttp://www.buycycle.co.za/images/detailed/11/Serfas_Shoes_SHOE_MTB_MENS_TRAX_41_BLK_GRY.jpghttp://www.bikespecsprice.com/images_products/Serfas-Mens-Trax-Cycling-Shoe_large_4.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrJacques Posted June 11, 2012 Share I have a pair of the Olympics. Comfort is good, and so far they are durable. I only rinse them off after riding so I'd say they clean pretty easily. The soles are quite stiff, which is good for pedaling, but not so great for walking. Biggest issue for walking is the lack of grip because of the 'plastic' nature of the soles. They have very little grip on big rocks. The Serfas' soles look like they are more rubber which should give better grip. As for shock absorption... that's what your legs are for!

Danger Dassie Posted June 11, 2012 Share In line with what you described your requirements as, the Serfas, the Olympics are more towards riding than multipurpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
