I'm unfortunately restricted to having to buy shoes online. It's a nightmare because I live in Asia and can't get my size. I want to avoid a protracted to-ing and fro-ing of returns and having to pay the international shipping costs on a dozen pairs of shoes until I get the right pair. The only website I've found with a comprehensive fitting guide is Lake, but their shoes are way outside my budget. Any advice would be very much appreciated.
Cheers.
Where abouts are you in Asia? I’m here too and have no issues. If you travel much, there are lots of good options in HK, Taiwan, SG, Malaysia, Thailand etc.
In Japan. Might have to wait now until Christmas. Thinking about Taipei. Thanks.

Sport pursuit sell some Lake models as a reasonable discount in case they have the right size and fit?
This was helpful. I didn't know this website Thanks. Unfortunately they don't do half sizes.
Absolute nightmare today. Hit by a lorry in Lewisham (which drove off). 3rd hit and run in 18 months. Bike survived the last 2 but not today. Di2 rear derailleur snapped off, rear Mavic Carbon Wheel trashed, mudguard destroyed and a snapped chain. No witnesses and no number plate either......
Been quiet on this thread for a while. By way of a bump, I am selling my second bike if anyone is interested.
Dolan ADX Titanium 2023 Large (suits 5ft 10 to 6ft 1)
Original price £1800, has over £1200 worth of upgrades.
Spec:
Full Shimano Di2 11 speed. Upgraded from 105 mechanical. Prime Orra Terra Carbon Handle Bars DT Swiss P16000 32 spline wheels Fizik Aliante R3 Open Saddle Carbon seatpost
No pedals.
This is the bike that I had the accident on, however, the damage was caused by a snapped gear hanger. Bike was fully inspected by Dolan and the warranty on the frame remains in place (4 years of the 5 years left) No marks or other damage.
After a bit of saving, a bit of wheeling and dealing and shedloads or indecision I finally ordered my new steed today. 4-6 weeks for delivery. Can't wait.
Not heard of this brand before but looks like a lovely bike. How did you find out about it and what spec did you go for?
About 3 months ago I saw a young lady ride past me on one. Googled them and discovered they are British based and one of very few smaller brands who own their own carbon frame molds.
I bought the frame set, integrated bars, out front GPS mount and Parcours Strade wheel set. They gave me £250 off the wheels as I bought them with the frame.
Finishing kit will all be swapped over from my current bike - Ultegra/Dura Ace/Back Inc mix. 12 speed Di2.
