Some cleats/pedals come with a sticker that is used to mark the location of the cleat for future cleat replacement episodes. Me? I use a silver sharpie to make the outline of the cleat on my shoe sole. No one really sees the bottom of my shoes, so I really don't care how aesthetically pleasing they are or aren't.davereo said:Once you find the sweet spot grab a nail out of your tool kit and scribe the outline of your cleat onto the bottom of your shoe. Now when its time to replace your cleats you wont have to go through the location process again.
A silver Sharpie marker is what I consider to be part of a basic-to-intermediate home bicycle repair tool set. I keep one in my bicycle tool box--aside from the advice above (great idea, will be doing that soon with my cleats), silver Sharpies are also great for marking a cable housing for cutting. A black Sharpie is also in the box...I hold one against brake calipers when doing a quick-and-dirty rim truing to mark the high spots.Originally Posted by alienator .
