| Re: Clipless pedal release difficulties I agree with the previous posts, and would add that the more tense and nervous you become, the harder it is to release. I know it's easier said than done, but try not to think about what you're doing as you try to release! As someone else said, check that you have the right cleats for your pedals. Also, it's not unknown for shoe soles to foul the pedal body. Usually you'd notice this on engaging the cleat with the pedal - it will be hard to lock in. You can check whether this is a problem by locking the shoe to the pedal without having your foot in the shoe (if you see what I mean!). It may be possible to trim the sole with a sharp knife if this proves to be an issue. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

I installed it so that my toe will point as far inward as possible so that I could twist out the farthest. The pedals are Shimano 5xx, I think, that came with Giant OCR 2. |
