My bro has asked for a pair of ProVision aerotex overshoes for christmas, does anyone know:

how good they are
where I can get them in London
how much they cost

Thanks!

Spans, I dunno anything about them but don't worry about getting them in London necessarily, order online - I would. Try wiggle.com? Or there are various cycling shops with websites.

do you think that provision aero overshoes are the same as the provision aerotex overshoes?

Fab service everytime. An' really helpful if you phone up - they never laugh at you when you haven't got a clue what you're talking about (OK, they probably laugh afterwards).

Spans,

I just get the cheapy neoprene overshoes. I always seem to wreck mine anyway with the minimal walking you have to do, and I'd rather wreck a £10 pair than a £40 pair.

No idea if they've got them but you could try Evans cycle shops (one near Waterloo as I recall) or Pearson's in Sutton - both have websites.

been to Evans didn't have the ones I wanted so wanted some advice on alternatives really... not buying any is not an option as it is a christmas present!

Just checked www.gbcycles.co.uk, nothing there. Will check back issues of Cycling Plus over the weekend if you wish.
