Knee pain

I had probs, went back to runners.

Float gives the knee joint some relief.
The sole thickness also neeeds to be taken into account, the seat height may need to be adjusted.

Do you have the option of changing from fixed to floating cleats without changing your pedals?
If not, it sounds like you need to try some careful tuning of your cleat alignment.

Hi all

I've just changed road shoes (Look to Specialized) after some years in my old ones. After two relatively short rides (60kms & 40 kms.) I'm experiencing a little pain in my inner left knee. I'm using my old fixed cleats - is it just a question of cleat positioning or something more sinister? Someone has told me I should never use fixed cleats and should definitely be using"floating" cleats.

Is there a definitive method for setting up cleat position on new shoes?

Any constructive advise greatly appreciated

You should pay for a proper bike which generally includes setting up of your shoes - also make sure that your stretching.
