Very Retro looking Diadora Gara Road Shoes (Size 44) Little Use.

These Diadora shoes are in great nick (my road bike flirtation was a short one!). They are Size 44 (I'm a size 9 and they fit me well).

I bought them a few years ago because I really liked the retro feel to them. Cleats included (LOOK if I remember correctly...) I think i'm still in therapy from what they cost.

Some light marking to underside of shoe caused by walking (or was that pushing!)

Sold for £30 posted.

Can you fit an SPD cleat to these shoes?

 

[ringo]

I believe so, would it help if I posted a picture with the cleat removed...

I'd say it's 90% you can...

 

[velocitizen]

Yes a photo without cleat would be good.
Do you have some SPD cleats? Could you try fitting them?
Cheers.

Pic below... No SPD cleats - sorry...

I'd be amazed if they don't take SPD's, you wouldn't make a shoe and miss out the biggest part of the market!

Thanks Omegastrada... that's some first post. Bravo!

 

[ringo]

Go on... Omegastrada - you know you want them...

They really are very good!

Ringo, I know I want them, actually I need them, but it's difficult with shoes that you can't try on first. How would you say they measure up - a large 44, or a small 44?

 

[omegastrada]

Stuff it, I'll take them I'm going out for the evening now but let me know how you want paying and I'll sort it all out tomorrow.
Cheers
