Hi,
Anyone know a shop that has a good selection of road bike shoes to try on - in/near Manchester?
I guess Evans has some - but anywhere else too?
I want to try a few different brands on because I have wide feet.
Thanks for any help.
I’ve got wide feet and ended up getting Cube shoes from Cycle Factory in Todmorden. Near(ish) to Manchester.
Not that near but a well stocked shop with knowledge on fitting them is RXM Custom in Huthwaite.
Sorted me out with some very nice Lake MX241 wide.
All they do is cycling shoes so I can't think of anyone better.
Harry Hall perhaps (no idea what they have in stock) or Rick Green in Handforth.
As a Manc with wide feet I haven’t seen any shops with any decent stock of wide shoes in stock. I just buy online from somewhere that does decent returns (Merlin and Sigma for the last few pairs).
RXM Custom in Huthwaite.
I'm booked in there on Friday 👍

Think I had three visits in total, none under an hour before I got the MX241 wide (in green camo - which I didn't think was available in wide). David has the patience of a Saint.

He may need it....
David came to my house and did a fitting in my garage during a semi lockdown period! I would thoroughly recommend RXM custom. He really knows his stuff and is willing to put a lot of effort in to make sure you get the right shoes.
I went to Merlin last time I needed to try road shoes on.
Got some Shimano ones in a wide version.
That's not far from MCR, and you can combine it with a ride up this way if you need to justify it.

Here was me thinking Mrs Sandwich was difficult with choosing shoes! 😀
We're talking road shoes. He needs the patience of a Dura Ace.
