Where can I find sidi bike shoes online for cheap?

I'll start at the end. Modern bike shorts or bibshorts have pads to help cushion those areas from the new and thinner (lighter) bike saddles or seats. They are extremely effective at what they do but be sure to get a shape that feels comfortable or you will hate them. Jerseys are helpful as they are made of moisture wicking materials that help keep you cooler. Plus they're tighter which will help with aerodynamics. Helmets are usually priced differently based on two key features. 1) Weight and 2) Ventilation. You will usually spend more for a better ventilated helmet but all helmets are held to industry standards for strength. The answer two your question is, a $59 helmet will help protect your head in a crash, its just not as light and airy as the others. Cycling shoes with 'clipless' style pedals make for a more effecient pedal stroke as you are able to push on the downstroke and pull on the upstroke. Sidi is an Italian company that has been making cycling shoes for many years. They are probably the favorite among professionals. Sidi's do have a unique fit though. If you have a wide foot you may need something a bit larger as sidi's tend to run a bit narrow. I do not recommend buying cycling shoes online. The only time you should do this is after you have tried them on at a local shop with a professional shoe fitter. The wrong shoe will cause discomfort on the bike. Once you do find the shoes you like I would check with bikesomewhere.com. They have good prices on sidi road shoes. Hope that helps.

Don't waste your money on real bike gear. Anything you need can be found at wal-mart. If you need padded shorts, raid your mom's maxi pads. Helmet, steal from the neighbor kid, he quit football last year. You want shoes, get your friend to use some Gorilla tape. P
