I've always liked SIDIs, but irritatingly they don't do the pearl white/yellow colour of the ergo road shoes in an MTB version. I've also got some Speccy BG road shoes which are bronze/black, and they're dead comfy n stiff too.
Could anyone suggest a racy mtb type shoe with either bronze, gold or maybe yellow?
I'm a tart I know.

Pimp enough? 🙂
Pimp, no. Absolutely horrible, yes 😉
[i]maybe yellow[/i] So is that a no to yellow then?
Splash of yellow on black or white fine, jamming needle in your eyes all over yellow with a splash of black, no.
I did say I was a tart yeah? I'd best add fussy to the list ...
Gaerne seems to have couple models available. CRC stock them at a price of £130 :-)[img]

I might just get them SIDIs and add a bit more gold with marker pen ...
ADH, you know you're just looking for a recommendation for the same shoes I (and Jimmy) have - Shimano M086 - very happy with mine.

Heh - its pretty much the same colour as that on my road shoes clubber, but they don't do it on the MTB version. gah.
I don't think the shimmy's are racy enough for me I'm afraid.
I have to mention its not just colour - my current dominators are 44's, when I need 43s really. Comes from when I didn't have winter boots and just rode round in merino and seal skins jammed in them ...
Not racy enough? Hmmm... Having ridden plenty of carbon road shoes, I have to say that the M086 aren't significantly less stiff.
Pimp?

And you can sprinkle them with some gold fairy dust for the desired effect, you frikkin puff.

Damo was wearing a pair of those yesterday (and BTW, Mike, he mentioned that they now have those roadie tyres (ultimos?) that you were after in stock)
Too late got 4 seasons now as they are probably more suitable, thanks for letting me know though.
Wish I'd got my pros in white now, although I think with white shoes you have to be able to live up to the racer image.
Where was Damon? Haven't seen him for a while.
Glad you could join us KT 8)
The speccy's are nice and I know they'll suit me feet. I might go white considering I have winter boots for the gloopy season (i.e. anything other than bikefest) ...
You do realize that will require you to get a white helmet as well?
And some Oakley Jawbones, otherwise all the sponsored whippets will call you names on the start line.
They usually do anyway - usually along the lines of 'fattie' or 'what the pork barrel doign here?'.
Noticed yesterday there are some big chunks smissing from my E2 - so time for a new lid ... though I may just bung some yellow insulation tape on it 😉

Ignore this post.
I can definitely recommend the Bell Volt for a new helmet - very please with mine after years with E2s.
I can definitely recommend the Met inferno UL for a new helmet - very please with mine after years with E2s.
