[#1834295]

Tried Shimano - OK; Spesh - too big/ small; Bonty - one foot too small; Mavic - fit well, light but a little soft. So what else do you lot recommend, something no more than £100 too.

Don't know - I think they are average - mates got some - I always go Spesh as they are cheaper - Someone else maybe have a better idea 🙂

You usually size up ie specialized 43 = Sidi 44. Sidi site has a fit guide you can print out and use to measure your feet.

All the 42s were OK apart from Spesh which were too long. So perhaps the 42s would be a place to start, can't find anywhere locally that does Sidi.

Just got a set of Bontys to replace my warranty Shimangos. I'm muchly impressed. If sizing is an issue they do come in half euro sizes...

If it helps I was a snug 42 in shimano but a reasonable 43 in Bonty.
