Didn't you see the LBS price before you tried them on.

When you're ready to buy your next bike have the LBS fit you, write down all measurements including seat post height, stem length, crank length, and then you'll have most everything you need to buy on line.
Ugh!
Read what I said. I DON'T do this, but in this case the shop was trying to up-sell me the shoes in spite of my telling them they were too expensive. They were taking MY time to sell me something I didn't want to buy. It works both ways you know. As it turns out too, I didn't get to do my ride because I spent more time in the shop than I wanted.
