Have done about 1500 miles in my DHB R1 shoes since I bought them around 6 months ago. These are my first clipless shoe so I don't have anything to compare them with but I've been very impressed with them. And despite being worn in some pretty poor weather they're hardly showing any sign of wear at all. Have had no problem getting a good fit using the velcro straps (they're very strong velcro, not like the crappy velcro I had on my trainers when I was a kid!).
One thing to be aware of is the sizing - I've got pretty wide feet and had no problem there but I would say they're maybe half a size bigger than I expected i.e. I ordered a size 8 but they fit more like a size 8.5 in my opinion.
