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

Issue with the shims

Issue with the shims. They have fallen out when in use. There should be a way to attach them (screw them in) so that they do not fall out. Or have the ability to stack different shims together so that a tighter fit is ensured.

Hard to adapt

I had some issue after trying to adapt them to my shoes, resulting in destroying the adaptator. Probably my fault, but not sure if I want to try again for the price.

Efficient order

Efficient order, shipped quickly.
Fitting was fiddly, as there was some incompatibility between look Delta cleats and my lake 219 shoes. But nothing a few minutes with a file didn't fix on the supplied bolts.

Mid-Foot Cleat Adapters

I've fit and supplied over 100 sets of the Mid-Foot Cleat Adapters. As a professional bike fitter, I find they are great for alleviating foot pain and issues with the lower limb. Long course triathletes in particular will benefit from moving their cleats away from the toes and into a mid foot position

Did not work for me.

I received the product in good order. Installed per instructions. It might be effective for some or even most. My cleats are crank bros. In my case the cleats are so much taller as to make walking nearly impossible. Also while riding my trike, the shoe feels wobbly. I'm unfortunately unable to use the product.

My pains have just been taken away.

My pains have just been taken away.
On the road, intermediate position.
In Mountain, it is more complicated to adjust and you depend more on the shoes. The problem is that walking with the coves delayed, is very complicated to stand out too much. Advisable.

Great for asymmetries

These adaptors are great for people with asymmetries as they allow a greater range of fore and aft cleat placement.

The use of bolts in the adaptors is a bit of a faff but otherwise really pleased with my purchase.
