Foot Tingling with Clipless Pedals I bought a new commuter bike (`Marin Muir Woods 29er`) and some clipless shoes that are "walkable" `DZR Shoes 'Midnight'` so I don't have to carry bike cleats around with me. However, when I ride I often get a tingling in the ball of my foot What are the common causes for this? I was thinking shoe may be too big (I wear 10.5 US and picked up size 45 EU for the new shoes) as my heel picks up easily while walking around. Others mentioned moving the cleat back, but it already is pretty far back in the shoe. I read the cleat should ideally be directly under the ball of the foot, is that not correct? Any other insights to help alleviate this tingling/numbness would surely be appreciated.

If the shoes seem a little too big, try some insoles. Start with the inexpensive ones you can find in a drugstore for $10. That will keep your foot from moving around inside the shoe without having to tighten the straps/laces so much. And maybe the extra cushion provided by the insoles will make the shoes feel a little more comfortable.
