I'm currently considering due to bad knees the Speedplay pedals (which is a topic for a separate thread). And if I do I'll be forced into ditching my current SPD shoes for something with road cleat attachments. I really like the look of the Fizik R5B Uomo's, but even though I live near London it seems very tough to find a dealer with them in stock to try on and buy. In fact many dealers don't seem to stock Fizik at all. Even on the internet supply seems very short.

Does anyone know a good website with them in stock where they can be returned if they don't fit / are the wrong size ?

And... White / Black ? :angel: The Bikes Matt Black and that was my first choice for the shoes. However the Mrs loves the White ones and they are much easier to get hold of.

Thanks for any sensible replies.

In so far as sizing is concerned,I should certainly try before you buy.I tried a pair in my LBS in my normal size 43(43.3 in Mavic).The result was interesting to say the least,far too big,both in length and width.As it was,the shop had no other sizes,apparently due to the fact that they were rather hard to get hold of.So Id say you need to be certain of the fit before you purchase,personally Id disregard them unless I could visit a shop,even accounting for the different lasts of different makers,it seems a bit of a gamble.I should also say that I wasnt too impressed with the quality either,fairly cheap and nasty I thought,which was a shame as I rather liked the look of them at first.
