Usually wear 45.5, got a size 46 RP5 for my fanbike but they're too short with my toes hitting the front (my 46 RC7 fits perfectly, but I need another pair of shoes as the Q factor is huge on ze fanbike = diff cleats and cleat positions).

Anyone know if the RC5 in 46 is bigger than the RP5? Reason I ask is only that size is available from the same webshop and they don't have any size 47 RP5 pairs urgh.

I suspect not. I don't know about that actual model but all Shimano shoes I have tried have been at least a size smaller than the number would indicate.

Yeah hard to know, but the RC7 in 46 fits so maybe worth a try..

Got a 47 RC5 and although 46.5 would have been perfect 46 would probably have been too small.

Now there are new models on the market though like the RC3 with only one boa and no velcro..
