Shoe/foot position over the pedal will effect the recruitment of the calves and change very little with regards to quads.
Changing saddle position fore/aft may effect how the quads/hamstrings/glutes are used if everything is in good working order - ie hip flexors are not massively tight and inhibiting the glutes from doing what they need to do - ie allow you to hammer on the downstroke.
People seem to blame bike position far too easily before considering that it could be an overuse injury. Pshgizzzosodsssszoodooo, have you been doing anything extra with regards to training/racing that you weren't doing before? This includes off the bike stuff like weights, being a parent to a fast growing child and lifting them all the time etc etc...

7 bikes, 8 bikes - 57cm, 58cm... is your bike stash like a merry-go-round?
Will next week bring the tally to 9 bikes with the biggest being 59cm?
