Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 42 reviews, reviewers had a great experience with this company. Customers are really happy with the product, often describing it as a "game changer" that effectively resolves issues like knee pain, metatarsalgia, and Achilles/calf problems. Many appreciate the high quality of the products and the comfort they provide during rides, with some noting improved performance. However, some customers also noted issues with the provided Phillips screws, finding them prone to stripping and not strong enough to hold the adapter securely without additional thread lock. A few people mentioned that the added thickness of the adapter can cause cleats to touch the ground, and some experienced a loose fit between the 3D print and the adapter. Additionally, a small number of reviewers did not receive their cleat or found the business management lacking, and some mentioned a desire for clearer fitting instructions.

Honestly the best move I've made when it comes to setting up my position on the bike in 25 years of cycling. Mid-Foot mounting is a game changer and should be more widely educated and adopted in th... See more

The idea is amazing and personally it really helped me with my metatarsalgia. But there are few things I wish were different. 1. The screws provided with the adapter are Phillips screws... See more

Best solution I've found for moving Cleats backwards

Best solution I've found for moving the cleats (Speedplay) further back. The Mid-Foot solution is well engineered and adds very little to the stack height whilst feeling solid.

Great service and would definitely buy again for any new additional shoes.

4 Star because the solution with postage is a little pricey - but otherwise highly recommended.

Not a solution

Hassle cutting and finding the right screw for the cleat and putting it together. When on it feels fishy

SPD mid foot cleats

I already had a pair of mid foot cleats for one bike with Speedplay pedals and these have been fantastic.
This purchase was for SPD pedals and support from Niels was excellent.
Unfortunately, the cleats aren't adjustable and are actually too far back, plus I had a problem unclipping which I wasn't able to resolve. So, I plan to extend the hole in the plate for the cleat attachment so that I can bring the cleat forward part way.
I was always aware that this was going to be trickier to get right than the Speedplay adaptor. I have no concerns over the build quality.

Great product

Great product. I don’t get numb feet anymore. However the top part of the plate needs to be chamfered off or something as part of the design. As currently the plate gets caught in the pedal instead of the cleats when trying to clip in.

Work great!!!

Easy to install, do what they are designed to do.
Moving the cleats to mid foot immediately released pressure off of the toes and forefoot. Also, I felt direct transfer of power to the cranks.

They tried

Overall, not satisfied. Never did use the pedals. They did not clup in on the shoes I had. They tried to help me but nothing worked. It took so long for the pedals to arrive and I had to sign at the post office didn't want the hassle of a return....be careful of these pedals unless you can try them first.

This is my 4th time i’m getting this.

This is my 4th time i’m getting this.
They worked very well. People that I had fitted these to are very happy using them.
Just that if they come with different longer length of screws to accommodate 3mm to 5mm leg length shims it will be perfect. Otherwise I have to source for my own screws every time which makes it a little hassle.

I had a toe surgery in December and…

I had a toe surgery in December and decided to use the plates to have the pedaling presure more in the midfoot than in the forefoot. This worked excellent and 3 days after the surgery I could ride again continue my training plan.
