@hippy was your switch to mid foot a gradual change or did you just make the adjustment and ride? Looking into it myself as I've also had achilles problems this year. From what I have read it feels weird when trying to accelerate rapidly but is an ideal position for long rides. Any advice on which shoes allow this much adjustment? Need something narrow like a Sidi or Mavic.

Narrow is no good for proper midfoot as you can't drill holes for cleats far enough v back. Shimano are good because they're wide. You might be able to get away with moving cleats back rather than proper midfoot. If b that's not far enough, Speedplay do an adapter that can move cleats v further back. Need to adjust saddle and bars too for full midfoot. It's a pain.
