Hello - I'm a student at Art Center College of Design studying product design. This term I am working on the redesigning of cycling cleats. I'm currently in the research phase, and wanted to get some user input. (It's quite difficult to get interviews in person from cyclists, as it is pretty awkward to chase after one and try to get them to stop and answer questions!) I've listed some questions that are important to the development of my design, and would really appreciate if you could spare a few minutes to give me your input.
1) What drove your buying decision when purchasing cycling cleats for bikes with cageless pedals?
2) What are the most important factors in terms of choosing cycling cleats? Price, function, material, color, aesthetics?
3) How important is brand loyalty? Do you tend to stick with one brand after it works? What affects your decision if you choose to stay with that same model or change to another one?
4) What type of gear, specifically, do you use?
5) Do you find any of the features on your shoes to be useless?
6) Does it bother you that it's difficult to walk in the cleats after getting off the bike?
7)If you could change something about the existing cycling cleats, what would it be and why?
If you could, it would be great to get some of your info, like first name, gender, age, city, etc. for the presentation of my research.... THANKS SO MUCH!
