Hey,
i'm lurking for some new racingshoes. I currently have Nike's, but want to return to Diadora wich i loved a few years ago. I really like the looks of the ones Ignatiev has. Wich model are those? Available to us mere mortals? At what cost?

(the white ones, not the pinks!!)

EDIT: Oke, i searched myself. I want the Diadora Proracer Carbon, those are the ones in the picture. I went to a big (+/- 500 shoes on display) cycling store, no Diadora's to be found.
Ask the lady at the desk, she said that they don't get no more Diadora's. And in addition: "Nike, Addidas and Diadora, that all over."

Won't i be able to get these nice shoes and is she right or does she live up to the fact that she was blonde and thus unknowing? :twisted:

So: do you guys still find Diadora's in your stores? Where can i get mine?
i live in belgium...

Good tip:

There was a bargain in bikebuster in denmark. Also probikekit has discounted those. bike-discount.de also sells Diadora.

Ask them.

Did the search, thx for the info, but no white Diadora Proracer Carbon's nowhere anymore...

I'm beginning to think that the Diadora's are really discontinued and that I will have to search for some other shoes!

the Diadora proracer carbons are not discontinued, I just got a pair last week. They have them in white(pearl), Black, and dark silver.

I know it says 2007 at the top of the page but those are the shoes we are getting in for the 08 year. But we are having to get them through our cannondale dealer.
