Hi all,

I'm hoping someone on here can help me... I am looking to buy the Shimano SH-TR51 Tri shoes and ProBikeKit do not have them in my size (I need a 44 and the biggest they have in stock is a 40). I'm not sure if they will get more stock but I can get them for $212 which includes the priority shipping (minus XMAS discount code). I have checked out a couple of other websites, Rapido Cycles and Freedom Machine and they are $290 and $314 (not including postage).

Does anyone know some good sites to buy these shoes from without paying close to the $300 mark?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Oggy, I have a pair of TR 51 shoes and they're great especially for hot summer days.
I buy a lot of stuff from Wiggle and also Chain Reaction Cycles, both UK sites. I'm pretty sure they sell those particular shoes, and they have sales on at the moment so its a good time to buy. Sorry I'm not good at posting links, but I'm sure you'll find them easily enough.

Oggy, try Cell Bikes. I picked up my new Shimanos $100 cheaper than I expected to.

Thanks Muz, I just placed my order for them on Cell Bikes and got them for less than Pro Bike Kit were selling them. It's a pity they don't stock Profile T2+ Carbon Tri Bars, because I would have bought some of them too!

I tried Wiggle too, but they were slightly dearer than Cell Bikes and they didn't have my size in stock, so I would have been waiting a while anyway.

Thanks again to you both for your help.
