secondly does anybody know when the black colour will be available in the UK i assumed the black version would be available at the same time as the silver ones but can't find them anywhere.

Got my pair in silver from Art's Cyclery. Very stiff, very light, and super flash. Not very good breathability, but I don't mind. Black should be available or available shortly it was available before silver.

Keen to try these to see what their width is like. I can barely get the Giro Prolight SLX top strap to touch the velcro! (why do these companies only produce their lower range shoes in their wide ['HV' for Giro] versions?!)

Interested in some reviews too, on the fence between these and some fizik r3's.
