LAKE CYCLING SHOES & SHOE FITTING SERVICE - 30mins - £25
One of the most common issues I come across on a day to day basis is riders with ill fitting cycling shoes. I'd say the amount of people that arrive for a bikefit with suitable footwear falls somewhere between 10-20%.
I have seen £10k bikes with the power being transferred to the pedals via £40 cycling shoes. This contact point is vitally important - This is where we deliver the power to the pedals. Energy lost here is gone forever.
​
Having a good stiff soled shoe that fits properly in terms of both length AND width is imperative if we want to arrive at a good cleat position and avoid many of the common foot related symptoms such as clawing, cramping, hot spots, foot pain and numbness.
​
The importance of this part of the fit cannot be underestimated.
LAKE are a cycling specific shoe brand catering for all foot types, not merely a fashion accessory where one size fits all allowing the online retailer to heavily discount due to the same last being used for every shoe they manufacture, which is the case for the vast majority of brands in the market place.
If your cycling shoes are not up to the job then you can book in for a shoe fitting before your bikefit and I can have the most suitable shoe in stock ready for your fit. It is impossible for anyone to keep a full range of these shoes in stock, even the largest online retailers can't - so whilst your ideal fitting shoe might be in stock on the day, it might not be and this approach gives us time to get it in before the fit.
The cost for a shoe fitting is £40 and that is redeemable against the cost of the shoe when it arrives in stock.
