Not enough Cleat Wedge

Not long ago we talked about pedal wear and how to see if more wedges are needed. We mostly focused on Look style pedals because for that system you look more toward the pedal for signs of wear. Here is a Speedplay cleat with Cleat Wedges and yet it was not enough. How can you tell? Look at the wear mark which is shown more on the out side (lateral part) of the cleat. If the fit is even between the shoe/cleat/pedal you will not see uneven wear like this.

This foot clearly does not want to be flat and needed just one more Cleat Wedge. Note ITS (In The Shoe) wedges do not always help this situation. This foot was a great example to compare ITS vs Cleat Wedges. No matter how much ITS went inside this shoe the foot did not meet the pedal flat until we went with Cleat Wedges. If you are unsure which wedge to use your odds are significantly better if you use Cleat Wedges only.

The perfect holiday gift. Give a bike fit to someone you know.

If you know someone that rides a bike and you are not sure what to get them for Christmas see if your local bike fitter offers gift certificates.

If you are a bike fitter post something on your site about gift certificates for a bike fit.

Happy Holidays!

Notice the Specialized saddles near the bike – we showed several models of the saddles throughout the class using the "SWITCHIT" which will be available soon. In the meantime if you would like to see the SwitchIT in action now visit Woodinville Bicycle. Mike Rabas the owner of Woodinville Bicycle also visited the class for an hour to talk about bike shop relationships with clinicians. Woodinville Bicycle is a Specialized dealer.  

Lastly a big thanks to Superfeet who supplies us with the world’s greatest over the counter insoles for all shoes, especially cycling.
