Anyone know who can offer the Shimano "Custom-fit" service for their shoes e.g. M240s?

I think it's where they use heat and a vacuum to create the "custom fit".

I've tried Samways and Leisure Lakes and they don't have the capability.

If there is nothing in Derby, try Adrian Timmis' place in Barton under Needwood - Cadence Sport I think it is?

There is a place on London road near the train station
Think its more time trial type shop but they do custom bike fitting so they may be best bet if anywhere in Derby does

Have you tried The Bike Shop on Monk Street ๐Ÿ˜‰

Just tried The Bike Shop on Monk Street, conversation went along the lines of:
"do you provide the custom fit service for Shimano custom fit shoes?"
"what do you mean trying them on?"
No then

Place on London road don't do it for Shimano on Bonty.

Closest to Derby I've found so far with capability is Cadence Sport near Burton but no availability until November. Next nearest is Swinnterton Cycles in Stoke - so I'll give them a go.

Cheers for all your suggestions.
