Interesting; out of curiosity, what other non-FiveTen shoes have you tried (and how do they compare), and what pedals do you use? It's particularly fascinating to me as I've heard feedback both ways (equal to FiveTen / less grip than FiveTen) which is the same as the feedback I've had about the stickiest 4.0 rubber from RideConcepts.
I haven't worn FiveTen's for so long - as I noted - that I can't give a true, recent, apples:apples comparison. Certainly, these are much stickier than other shoes I love and comparable in my mind to my past Stealth experiences.
Have to agree with the laces. I was sure that the flat laces from Shimano/Leatt were the way to go, but with the little pocket these work fantastically.
