Does anyone have any experience of these dhb shoes http://wiggle.britishcycling.org.uk/p/B ... 360041918/

Any good as a racing shoe? Look nice & a decent price!

Cheers

    Bought a pair just after Chrismas. But due to the weather haven't tried them yet! But they look & feel good quality!

    I've had a pair of these for a couple months now and no problems what so ever, the sole is very stiff and great for putting the power down. And the Ratchet system is great for tighting them, cant go wrong using them really

    Due to the artic conditions I've resorted to putting some DHB Overshoes over them whilst riding to keep the chill off and it's worked wonders!

    Thanks guys. I've got quite wide feet and currently wear Specialised BG Fit shoes, however I want some white "bling" shoes for this season.

    What's the fit like?

    Cheers

    Haven't really had to much of an issue with fit myself, I ordered size 44 (UK9) And thats the size I get when buying other trainers or shoes.

    Cycling shoes are quite stiff of course and dont have a huge amount of room to wiggle my toes about if they seem to be getting numb. If in doubt just order 1 size up and put an extra pair of thin socks on, Wiggle are very good at returns to if you find the fit not quite to your liking,

    I also brought them because they do look quite bling!

    I have the tri version and find them perfect - no problems!

    Nice shoes and fit well, although I had to get a size bigger than normal (46 instead of 45).

    Seems everybody has to get a size bigger than normal. Was normal size, too tight a fit because of thicker socks? How tight were they with normal socks? Painfully tight?

    I'm asking because i take a 12 size shoe, which converts to 47 which is the biggest size. So do you think it be too small?

    I looked in my LBS. Shoes of this look and quality are all £80+

    I went with my normal size and they fit ok with work socks! (reminds me - must go & get a new pair of cleats)!
