Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

diadora speedracer, how do they fit?

anyone have a pair?

i found a good price online, and they seem to be decent shoes, but buying shoes online always worries me.

i believe i'm somewhere in the 42-42.5 range. do these tend to run small, large, wide, thin, etc?
anything'll help.
thanks

I've used this for another brand and it was accurate.
YMMV

They are a little bit wider across the ball of the foot. Length is good. I have six pair of the Pro Speedrace Carbon. Cannondale distributes in the US.
