Sidi shoes

Bwoar! 400 for ride shoes i cannot justify. I wear thongs (sandals-flipflops) and dunlop volleys at a grand total of $25, id rather drop that much into a frame instead of shoes.

Anyone want some size 42 Dominator SRS?

400 for which shoes? I've got a pair of Bont Riots (£100 reduced to £50 a bit ago) and they're spot on. Well made, comfy, infinitely remouldable. Better fit than the Sidis and available in big sizes. My mate got Bont Vaypor (I think?) or one of the other fancy ones for about £100 a bit ago too.

If you need £400 XC race shoes you probably should get them free from your team. But if your insurer is paying for them... that's a win.

The bonts in aus are 350-400. http://www.pushys.com.au/shop-by-brand/b/bont.html Check it out, have a lauf. And uk sites i could pick up a pair?

The Vaypors are pretty fancy, but that does seem like a lot of money...

You can get them in UK here:

Bont Blitz in pink, in size 50 (measure you're feet and use their online size thing - https://www.merlincycles.com/bont-blitz-road-cycling-shoes-80119.html

Bont Riot in black in size 49 here - http://www.sigmasport.co.uk/item/Bont/Riot-Road-Shoe/2H64

The Riot and Blitz sizing is a little different, definitely measure your feet before ordering.

Yeah their online sizing was good, cheers

I have no idea where this shop is based or whether it's AUD or USD. Looks like fedex shipping is $25 anywhere, but can't really tell.

Yeah i just bought a pair of sidi 5 carbon megas for $140 aud. go forth and spread the word Australia is an expensive place to shop, but tip top and i wouldnt change it!

What size?

50 its only a tenner to exchange if they dont fit.

where can I get one of them (for left shoe) in black, in London?

the only shop that sell them is Evans and they're currently out of stock

If you are in a pinch i think I have spare in white that was bought as a replacement but never got around to replace

Thanks @amey looks like evans have the buckle in white, silver, blue, red etc, but not black.
Ripped the buckle today on my commuting shoes, this will do for now.

Tried Condor ?

I always call into Fitzrovia Bicycles for Sidi spares. Worth a call.

Not yet. Thanks @Zed @TTM

@dimi3 eBay.co.uk has them

Am I OK to replace an old SL buckle with a new standard Sidi buckle?

I assume the ratchet steps and strap widths are the same?

Meh, internet suggests not and that I'd need a new strap as well as buckle...

I remember looking in that, I think the spacing of the teeth of the straps is different.

Yeah one of my SL buckles is nearly dead - Don't suppose anyone has a bought a full set of spares but only used a set for one half of a pair of shoes?
I'm loathe to spend about £30 on the relevant buckles and straps to only fix one shoe...

I will buy other half from you.

Funnily enough I broke mine a few weeks ago and I'm holding it together with leccy tape, sidi won't have any in for a few weeks

What colour do you need? Or not fussy?
