Subject: New cycling shoes, new front knee pain (cleat position?) Hi folks- I posted this in the Injuries forum, but not sure how many people read it. Would love some help! I've had an old pair of Specialized cycling shoes, SPD-SL pedals... for five years, never any knee pain (or "upstream" issues at all). I got some new Specialized shoes (Road Comp), and immediately had knee pain, in the front, right knee only. The shoes feel great, just some immediate "mechanical" issues. Wondering if front knee pain is likely a cleat position thing? The new cleats are set dead-middle like my old ones. The shoes have the Body Geometry footbeds, and I have the package of various shims I could try. Not even sure which way the alignment might be out of whack though, so not sure which direction shims might work. And why just the right knee? Thank you! http://beginnertriathlete.com/discussion/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=461778&posts=1&start=1 |
