Flat-soled, no option for cleats, classic shoes i leather please. I’m a UK size 10. Need to be flat as they’re for my geared bike and I’m sticking with clips and straps on it.

Would prefer Rivat’s like below, minus the housing for cleats obviously, but anything considered so long as they’re in good condition, they fit and I like them. Keeping an eye on ebay and elsewhere but always worth dipping my toes into this here forum as well.

Thanks

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
