Any question answered...

UK 9 then. size too small. :(

I don't suppose they are 43 'Mega' by any chance. If they are i'll take them

I dont see any 'mega' :(

damn you laner!! damn you!!

iain i thought you took 44?

Headset spacers aren't wide enough, outboard bb spacers work though

Internal 1.370" (34.8mm, 35.0mm is better to give a bit of clearance) external needs to be no more than 39.0mm to clear most chains when using a 12t sprocket

40mm PVC waste pipe will do at a pinch, will only work with sprockets >13t, 6 bar or 10 bar rated will work, 16 bar won't because of the excessive wall thickness.

Thanks guys...

They sound like they're Sidi Genius 5 Pro

no idea to be honest... I no longer trust retailers when they give sizes...

Pics. however the cleat holes are slightly recessed when removing the speedplay cleat, would this cause problems for non-speedplay cleats then..?

Why cant they just give it in foot length in cm?!

I dont see any 'mega' :(

It would say '43 M' on the tongue or the bottom of the shoe

No worries, bit of a long shot.

Sorry to come to this so late.

Never heard of the researchers,
but,
the second paragraph of the introduction is incorrect.

'Silicones', 'silicone oils', 'polysiloxanes' or long chain silicone polymers are normally used because they are inert.
Silicone dioxide, (better known as sand), is inert.
(there are alpha-omega polysiloxane di-ols, but they are not going to react with sand at room temperature).

Silicone oils, normally sold, and selected for use, by viscosity can be gelled by the use of fumed silica, (very small grains of sand).

Silicones are generally waterproof and are mostly insoluble in vegetable oils, so short chain, volatile silicone oils are used to help spread the gelled silicone oil into thinner layers.

Once applied this silicone gel will probably be more waterproof than the oils of the skin and may 'plump up' the outer layer of the skin.
(One simple theory of the outer layers is of dead/keratinised skin cells in a 'sea' of body oil).
The silicone gel may slow down the loss of moisture from the outer skin layer.

Can't see any verifiable therapeutic effect myself

Personally, when I had a small operation on a 'little' finger the scar looked pretty fierce, so I daily rubbed some aloe vera sap on it, as in treating a burn. No reference untreated scar for comparison.

(I used to sell silicone oils, and have no current financial interest in their sale, or in aloe based materials for that matter).

I've actually stopped using it for now as it was hurting my eyes (that might've been the stupid hours in front of computers too but it's never really bothered me before so I assume it's the silicon's fault).

I will give the scar some more time to heal au naturale and then probably try it again and see what happens. Probably also use Vit E, although that has been studied and apparently has no effect on wounds even though loads of people suggest it.

Thanks for the info.

How on earth do you buy shoes if you don't know what size you are?!

throw many sided dice.

Magic 8 ball?

so can anyone id the cleats?

they look like zeros but the zeros according to google images they all have a 'wavy' circle on the middle bit with the spring these have a completely smooth circular one

Do they have adjustable float screws?

found a Bikeability 2 badge in the street. can I wear it with pride?

During Level 2 Bikeability training you will get out on the roads! Level 2 gives you a real cycling experience so that you are able to deal with traffic on short journeys such as cycling to schools.

no spenceey

edit* theyre speedplay X

Might be light action then.

Zero's have tiny screws which you can adjust float - light action are open float.

100m swim badge would be better

Although my light actions look nothing like them.

^^^^

x series, pre 2002 apparently...!

Sell the cleats, swap the shoes.

Cleats are probably unsellable not in great condition.

Im going to see what the ebay seller says, itd be more worthwhile for him to just give me a refund for the item than ask for them back i reckon...
