[Closed] What road shoes?

Oh, and I'm feeling a spending spree coming on so if someone could reccomend some mid range lycra shorts/bib shorts that would be ace. Want asos but can't afford 🙁

For the shorts - Giordana Tenax are pretty good

I find the adidas shorts flowstar or whatever they're called, that come up on ebay cheap from time to time great.

For the shoes, I have some speccy BG comps, FACT carbon sole, stiff, fit great, don't break the bank.

For cheap shoes, try the Vipers on CRC. White, two velcro straps and a third ratchet strap.
Sure they were sub fifty quid.

Thanks for the tips guys, anyone got an oppinion on these Adidas shoes:

looko pretty good value, but have no idea if they are any good or not!

Might still be too expensive, but [url= http://www.parker-international.co.uk/12447/Castelli-Velocissimo-Bibshorts---Black-Anthrecite.html ]Castelli[/url] make very nice bib shorts:

Hmm..I might stretch as they do look v. nice!

Thanks fuzzyfelt! That just swung it!

Edit: typical no bloody size large

I've just bought some Medium Santini Top bib shorts from Prendas 59.99 although they have some larger sizes on special offer if you don't mind team kit

Regarding the Castelli shorts; the sizing is quite Euro (ie small) - I wear those shorts in a size large and I'm 32" waist, 5' 11" and under 11st. Just so you know...

Spesh FACT carbon soled shoes are the best I've ever tried and would not be swayed by anything else.

Giordana Tenex shorts are great, I'm currently 'trying' to get on with some Assos shorts, read between the lines.

Hmm, Deano do you think I need XL then? I order some Casteli bibs in large and I'm 5'11 and 12.5 stone? Kingtut - I'm veering to the spesh shoes myself atm

I have some XL Castelli bibs (5'11" 14 stone) and they're a bit on the small side (height-wise to in that the bib straps are tight on the shoulders). OK once you're out on the bike though so you'd probably be OK with XL.

Personally though if I were you I'd get the DHB road shoes and DHB Finchdean shorts, apart from the odd special offer you're not going to find better at those prices.
