I switched from my old Carnac TRS9s to a pair of the Tri-Vents this year. I love the shoe, but with the cleat in a pretty standard position does anyone else feel like their feet are too close to the cranks and/or experience calf tightness and fatigue. I know cleat position is individual and part of a good fit, but assume a similar relative position of the cleat from one shoe to another. With my cleat centered on my Tri-Vents or centered on my Carnacs it get a fair amount of calf fatigue and tightness and it feels like my feet are too close to the cranks.

Anyone experience something similar? Should I just slide the cleats back a little and move them in to push my feet a little further from the cranks? If I slide the cleats back should I lower my saddle at all?
