This shoe is mostly good, but the velcro strap is a bit thick and sometimes rubs on my cranks. The Boa system works well. The GE900 seems to be a hybrid between the previous ME7/ME702 and a more downhill-oriented shoe. That's OK with me, but it seems that they also eliminated the two shoes that they hybridized to make this one. For my riding style (more XC/trail), I wish they had kept something more like the ME7. The GE900 is a bit bulkier than I would prefer.
Shimano GE900 is a worthy successor to the ME7. I’ve worn out several pairs of the ME7 shoes since introduction and still have one pair as backup. The main issue with that shoe has always been the speed laces. They do wear out much faster than the rest of the shoe. I have had the 5 ten Boa shoes before and like that feature even though the Shimano shoes fit my feet better. The Shimano Boa integration seems much better protected than other brands so we’ll have to wait and see if I manage to break the Boa system on these shoes
I bought these shoes to replace an older lace pair that was giving me pain in the forefoot and foot numbness. The wider box gives my foot some more room and the clips holes give you flexibility for cleat placement. The BOA cables and Velcro make taking this on and off really convenient and rear collar on the heel helps keep small stones from kicking up into your shoe on gravel
