I'm a visual learner and i've watched so many videos trying to understand how to set up my cleats, the way you demonstrated with the foot skeleton and pedal I GET IT NOW thank you!
Not sure if you'll see this question but will ask anyway. I have adjusted my indoor bike to the most comfortable position but I still get pain in one of my left leg quad muscles. It's either the satorius or rectus femoris muscle, not sure which. What cleat adjustment would help with that issue, if any?
Hey Russell- Thanks for the comment. Although it's tough to guide you without seeing your BikeFit, generally you'll want to move the cleats back (posteriorly) as this will lessen stress to the quads and knee, and can also consider raising your saddle 5-6mm and re-test. Either of these accommodations should lessen stress on your quad- hope that helps!
@@PedalPT Thanks. I did move the cleat back just a little and it seemed to help a little. I’ll try it for a few more rides before I make any more adjustments.
