To the guys saying tcx comp evo boots are flexible and the most comfortable are crazy, or they haven't worn another boot any time lately.
I bought a pair because I wanted to test the Michelin sole, the sole is fairly durable, but the plastic has split near the arch of the foot, which is all plastic, and I don't see any way of repair after only 4 months of use.
The boot is very supportive which I like, but it is heavy and not very flexible at all, this is not a complaint, I like the support.
But my tech 7's are a lot more comfortable and lighter. I normally race in my comp evo's, but was having a slight problem with my knee, so I raced in my tech 7's on the weekend because they feel lighter and tend to not get hung up in ruts, as they are less bulky.
For me it's the tech 7's for comfort and easier shifting, and comp evo for support.
Note. It did take me a few rides to get good shifts with the comp evo. But I've never had a problem with the tech 7's.
I have broken in SG12s at home too, but no way can you say they have the same feel and flexibility of the GX-1. Amazing boots but feel like lead weights on the end of my legs in comparison to the GX1!!
I recently purchased a pair of Sidi Crossfire 2's. Not the same feel (thicker sole & toe area) but possibly better protection.
I still wear the Crossfires in the race & use the CF 2's in practice.
I have no experience with the Crossfire 3's. May be there a blend of both. I doubt it though.
What's your impression of the switch?

I like to feel the ground when I ride.
I might look old, but I am very comfy all day.

Ive had the tech7s and tech 10s with the boot liner before. Felt just as heavy, I have 30 hours on my tcx comp Evo boots that I got in may.
I feel way more comfortable in the tcx boots that I ever did wearing the alpinestars. I find the tcx close in comfort and durability as the sg 12s.
To each their own. I guess.
