I wouldn't buy shoes online period. The shop is going to mount the cleats and make whatever other adjustments that doing yourself is a pain. Especially if you are new to the sport I would not recommend. All for what? Save $30? If you want to nickel and dime, cycling is not your sport. Doing so makes for the worst end result; buying it again... Buy everything right the first time and you'll save more than trying to save cutting corners.

Bicycles it is a little different. Once you have a running bike and geometry/style you like, you can hunt down parts new and used to build a 2nd or specialty bike.
