Sidi Crossfire vs Sidi Crossfire 2. when it comes to price difference i can find the Crossfire for 200 to 300 cheaper then the crossfire 2. i know the basic differences as far as interchangeable sole an what not. Have any of you worn both sets of boots an can give me some advice on if is worth spending the extra 300 or if the crossfires are just as comfortable an same quality. im still running the old fox v3's so its time for something new

Bought the Crossfire 2 SRS for my son recently.
Our observations so far after a few rides:
Break in was quick and painless
No hot spots
Heavy compared to A Stars tech 7s
Hope this helps

Go for the original one's. I have the 2 and a friend of mine has the normal crossfire. Yes, there is an improvement but not a extra $300 improvement Wink

Crossfire in general is very good though. I had a crash with my old TCX and I needed new, thicker and safer boots and Sidi provided them.

Sidi Crossfire 2 are the best boots I have ever used - bar none

I have both. The new "2" has a nub on the back to aid in shifting with the heel on starts. It is a little lower at the toe. Functionally, the bots work about the same. The new "2" is a little tighter around the ankle for the same size (46) than the old crossfire, but that may be just being newer and not 2 years old.......

The old ones are well worth the money. Only if your a top 100 pro would you see a difference
.......

The SRS (which is what I have in both models) have a replaceable sole. I believe it wears quicker than the conventional sole. But, the boot itself stays flatter, as in the toes don't curl up like Tech 8, Gearne and other boots with stitched on soles.

Hope this helps.........
