Cleats

How do I position cleats on my shoes?

I just got a pair of new Shimano shoes today. They feel great, but I have no idea how to determine the correct cleat position. The cleats on my other shoes have been in basically the same place for 3 years. I’d like to race the new shoes this weekend, but I don’t want to risk hurting my knee. Sadly, there are no fitters around here who could help me.

Any advice?

Draw a line on the sole from the center of the heel to the center of the toe and across the ball of your old shoes and see how your cleats lined up on the cross-hairs. Then draw the same lines on your new shoes and line up your cleats.
