I've got some new shoes, I had Bont Riots, I've now got Bont Blitz. Same size. I fitted the same kind of cleats in the same position (relative to the balls of my feet) and everything looks fine.
Also fitted same specialized blue insoles and feel like they've got the same amount of arch support.
My left leg has always tracked straight and been fine, but I've now got a bit of pain below and to the right of the left kneecap, from a bit of googling, maybe pes anserine bursitis.
I've also noticed my left foot doesn't quite track straight now. As the foot goes down, the heel comes out a little, then heel goes in at the bottom of the stroke.
Could the left cleat need to be moved either left or right a bit? I don't feel like it needs to be twisted one way or the other, so I suppose this is a Q factor question. Or is there something else I'm missing?
