Considering the Nike Pegasus 29 /30....Mizuno Wave Rider 16....Asics Cumulus (latest model)...has anyone run in any of these shoes and can offer some input either positive or negative. Male...64...5'10"...150lbs...neutral. Thanks.

All three are a good choice. I think that the Pegasus has the most cushion followed by the Cumulus and then the Wave Rider.
Pegasus 30 comes out June 1st.
I haven't tried any of the above shoes but the title of this thread made me think that K-Swiss should only be allowed to make neutral shoes.
Pegasus and cumulus are going to be way more cushioned than the rider. So, if you like more contact with the ground I would say rider then cumulus then pegasus. Generally, you're going to have a shorter shoe-life with the pegasus. Mizuno has a pretty distinct feel because they use what is called a "wave plate" to promote forefoot running, some people love it..some hate it. Mizuno and asics are both more formfitting and have a lower overall profile than Nike. If you're looking for a little more room overall and a wide toe box, pegasus would work.
I have always had great luck with the asics cumulus, cheapest I found online was here:
fyi I am 58 and similar build
i've worn the cumulus for years. the price has always been right. the pegasus has a bit too much cushion in the heel for my liking. i've tried previous versions of the wave rider but they gave me blisters in the forefoot and i've never had that problem with any other shoe. but, the mizuno precisions are just fine.
if you like these, check out the brooks defyance and brooks launch. the defyance is more like these and the brooks launch is a bit lighter.
