Wrapping up a few days of bike fits in the SW at Loose Nuts in Atlanta, GA and The Bike Shop in Auburn AL.

Out of 6 bike fits only two of them used an In The Shoe Wedge (ITS) however each already had 3 Cleat Wedges or more on their shoes. When you get into that range of wedge need the heel wedge absolutely will be more prevalent and indeed  four of the bike fits required heel wedges. Average heel wedge use was a little less than two degrees. Are you trying heel wedges? If not you may be missing something. We suggest giving  them a try.

Here is Jeff of Suwanee Creek Bicycles holding up a modified Look Cleat Wedge that we cut down to make a heel wedge. This is easy to do.

Here are a couple photos of two Look Cleat Wedges cut to match the radius of SuperFeet Black insoles. Just trim with scissors and let us know how it works for you and your clients.
