    Phew - I'm glad the white/blacks are still £99 or I'd be cursing the terrible value for money of the pair of those I bought from Wiggle!

    There's a reason the red are so cheap! :lol:

    To be fair, they still look infinitely better than anything that has ever come out of the Sidi Factory! :lol:

    That is quite the deal huh.

    Alas nowhere near me has stock, and I understand the 10% discount only works instore, and as it's not in stock anywhere nearby I would have to pay online, and not be able to benefit - or have I got it wrong?

    Also giant sizes.. couple of 58s and three 60's..


    Their 58s and 60s are like 56s and 58s from other brands. Even smaller. Their bigger bikes are tiny. Thanks anyway.

    unfortunately discount is now only 10%, blast should have got the cdf

    I'm the same, £300 in the basket, doesn't feel right that I don't havea voucher for wiggle and that they're the cheapest

    I spent some time trying to find this voucher and failed miserably - I suspect it doesnt exist.

    I want a Kask Mojito, would be £96 with 20% off RRP, bargain.

    I made 4 discreet orders as mine was a mix of things that I could split into £50's then unsubscribed and resubscribed to farm the £5 newlsetter vouchers, plus TCB. Got there in the end.

    Use EXTRA20 to get it for £96, it does say excludes Kask but it goes through to checkout with the discount.

    I couldn't bring myself to spend more than £100 on a helmet so sneaking under is important!

    Damm paid £250 for mine and that was a good deal then. However I might be up for selling mine for if your interested as i've been thinking about going back to garmin. The 305 is good unit but there's a lot it doesn't do, no lap counter for starters. I do have an extra Speed and Cadence Sensor, mounts and a carry case which are worth another £60+, i'd do the lot for £200....

    Reviews reckon the K-Force size one step smaller than normal so you may be good with a 44?

    Price goes down to £153.

    Ends tomorrow. Bear in mind the Cadence and HRM is worth nearly £50 (Same as the ones in decathlon I think)

    What's the fitting like, wide, normal or narrow? ditto for the size are they more italian or USA

    Mine arrived today, i'm in love! haha

    Beautifully made, im a 10 1/2 in a normal shoe, have Spesh BG's in size 45 and they fit well. My feet are medium arched, fairly wide up front.

    Bought the R3's in 45, this is how i'd describe the fit;

    So yes, very happy, not tried them on the bike yet though but can get the straps nice and tight.

    Fcuk me Dorothy would have been very happy with them!!

    They are a sweet fitting shoe and in the footbed is better than the Insole ones I had purchased.

    Love mine and thinking of getting R5 for winter.
