• On the subject of spd stealth shoes, I can’t work out why very few seem to have the cleat properly recessed so the sole around it stops the cleat from clacking on the ground. Bought some chrome mids ages ago, they’re pretty good on the bike but really don’t protect the cleat from the ground. Think Shimano do an ugly touring one that does. Any others?

    'Cos otherwise it looks like you've got those built up shoes like you get if one of your legs is a lot shorter than the other.

    @dancing james yes yours are the ones to which I am referring. They do look recognizably ‘cycle’ though, don’t they.

    @HatBeard I just can’t get past qp logo looking like a pendant cock n balls. Oh and they do have a very office-shoe look, not really my bag.
