Currently have some sidi dominator 5's they are pretty good but could do with something a little stiffer, the sidi's are a size 50, and they don't go up to that size in their more expensive carbon fibre soled shoes, and from what I can see nor does anybody else.

Anyone got any suggestions for a manufacturer that does.

Fairly sure that Shimano go up to size 50.

Though again I'm not sure that there are any carbon models

And on the off chance that you can fit a 49, it seems that there's quite a lot of shoes at size 49.

Shimano shoes are instruments of torture (do they still have that stupid grid pattern on the inside of the sole).

Funny, they're one of the few brands that don't kill my feel - just goes to show that you need to try them to see...
