look keo classic i paid a little over £30 for mine (the price seems to have gone up to £42.95 on merlincycles.com) and i went for shimano Ro86 shoes currently £54 on chainreactioncycles.com
Total cost for those is less than your £100 budget.
Have alook in the classifieds, they sometimes have shoes and pedals reduced

Tony,

My only recommendation is that you try the shoes before you buy them. The fit between each model (nevermind manufacturer) seems to vary a lot.

Looking at these on Planet x

No worries.

I wear Spesh BG Pro, but they're outside the £100 price range. People have a lot of good words for Shimano shoes so I doubt you would go far wrong with those on the PlanetX website.

As for pedals, you can get your hands on a pair of Look KEO Easy or Shimano R540 (with cleats included) for about £30. And they will both match those shoes with the three bolt pattern.

Great cheers for the advice

kingrollo

Northwave vertigo & 105 SPD SL - ther vertigos were on offer at evans for £60 - and the pedals should be about £30

Thanks for the quick advice gents

I've looked at the Northwave Kingrollo as well but was tempted but the carbon soles on the Planet X as mate advised thats what I should be looking out for

anyhow food for thought and will definitley try before buy

Now to get the Obrea Onix out the box in the hall ( which will please the missus) where its been seen I bought it in November and get riding :oops: :oops:
