Does anyone know of a real shop in or around the Birmingham area that actually stocks shoes and pads you can try on for size.

I know that Swinnerton Cycles at the Birches valley car park on Cannock Chase stock 510 shoes (and I'm pretty sure pads too), as I got some from them myself: http://www.bikechase.co.uk/

Cool maybe I'll look in there next time I go. Their website seems to show sod all.
I'm popping into Cyclesurgery today, but I have a feeling they don't have enough everything in stock.

FWIW, 510 shoes (coincidentally, since that is who has bought the company out now) seem to size-up similar to Adidas trainers.

I found 510's to be slightly tight in the middle behind the wide part of my feet.

I ended up with the specialized 2FO's, which are £20 more expensive so not please with that, but the fit it better for my wide meat plates

Got some Freeriders in the end after I tried on a size 9 and they fit perfectly.
They feel great on and I love the grip. Turns out what they all say about 510s are true and worth the money.
Got them for 71 in the end so saved a bit of money.
