I just bought a new bike (Performance Sirrus Comp). For various
reasons, I'm not interested in clipless peddles. The toe clips
that come with the Sirrus are too small for the shoe I wear,
which is a normal size 11 tennis shoe. The result of being too
small is that I find myself with knee pain that wasn't there
before on my old bike, which didn't have any toe clips at all.
I think what's happening is that the location on my foot
that I'm pushing with has moved from the middle of my foot,
on the old bike, up to the ball of my foot.
I bought a set of "Large" toe clips at the local Performance store
but it turns out that they're the same size as what came with the
new bike. What I need is a larger set of toe clips that let me put more
of my shoe in them so that the middle of the peddle is roughly
at the middle of my foot.
Looking at the web I see that there are a few places that
sell "Extra Large" toe clips. Has anybody used them to solve
the problem I described above? Is there such a thing as "Extra
Extra Large" toe clips?
