  1. Hi guys,
    Am new to the community, so please excuse the long message.

    I recently got myself a Cannondale SL4 with 1.5in road tires to ride/train around the city of Mumbai.
    When I started riding, I noticed that my toes would get numb after about 40mins of cycling continuously. Didn't have proper cycling shoes before, so got a pair of Diadoras with SPD pedals and started riding with them on. The numbness is not gone.
    Have been reading up on Cycling issues and stuff, but still haven't got a solution to the problem.
    Have done all the checks pertaining to seat height and stuff.

    Am sure everyone else over here has much more experience than i do. Would anyone know why this might be happening?

    Thanks a ton in advance.

  2. Sounds like you have a possible circulation issue caused by a pressure point. Move you cleats, lossen your shoes a bit, thinner socks or maybe you favor one leg over the other causing it to carry most of the work load.
    Just a few possibilities and or could be something entirely different.

  3. Thanks a lot Jhuskey. Will try out the options.
