  • Will speedplay pedals help with my hip (which sometimes becomes knee pains)? Is it float that I need? Currently on look keos. Had a bike fit but eventually the pain returned.

    I need a solution that isn't: become better cyclist. Tho, maybe that is the only answer. sad face.

  • Potentially unrelated but I used to get pain in my hip and solved it by stretching. It was a pain that felt like it was right in the joint of the leg/pelvis but was caused by tight hip muscles on one side. Turns out years of sitting with one foot resting on a knee caused an imbalance.
    Fixed it by doing this every other day for like 5 mins:

  • Good shout, it does happen in one leg...need to up the stretching game.

    Does make sense that weak hip could be trying to get my foot to move in order to use other muscles that could compensate.

    Need to do more yoga in general.

  • Mind blown. Went for a run yesterday and my hip is killing me in the exact place you describe and I always sit with the other leg resting on my knee
