So far I'm loving the Sabots! Didn't care for the Grip Kings. Love the MKS touring but, yeah, wanted something bigger. I own the VP Thin Gripsters and like them, however I prefer toe cages, so the VO Sabot was the next logical step. Call me crazy. I do a lot of touring, gravel, dirt, etc. on a number of different Rivs. At the end of the day street shoes + cages/straps feel the best to me.
However- I have not logged too many miles on the VO Sabot w/ or w/o toe cage, so my input may not be of much use. Just wanted to chime in and let you know that I'm pretty happy thus far.
