nope, have triple checked that, just in case. Its just the left pedal, the right is fine and behaving normally which is why I'm so confused about what the problem is.

Just replaced my cleats and set them up for extra float. Feels a bit weird on the left foot too. The cleats are too soft anyway, and wear quite quickly. Don't try to mod them. Just be aware and twist like fuck...

sure, but the 'twist like fuck' sends my foot flying once it finally releases... basically the 'click' in and out is so violent it feels like i am gong to dislocate something and by the end of the ride my knee and ankle ache like hell...

Hi,
any chance someone can post a picture of the mod to time ATAC cleats that improves thier release?

Have a new pair of Time ATAC Aliums and have been trying to break them in but am now convinced my left pedal is trying to kill me.

My right pedal is fine, clicks in and out sweet as pie, but my left pedal has a mind of its own. I've seen on a few forums that other people have had the same problem and have ground down certain edges of the cleat to improve the ease of release but all image references for this modification no longer exist.

Can someone please help? I am now suffering from severe damaged pride, not to mention bruised shoulder and hip from a number of 0 mph dismounts that I have experienced in the last week...

ps. There is no difference in set up between left and right cleats, i've doused the pedal in lubricant in case it was just a bit stiff and the sole of my shoe is not in the way... just in case you were wondering if that was the cause ;)

unfortunately, you should probably be at the police station. they will generally take things more seriously if you are there in person. Plus they are likely to get the forensic photographer to take photo's of the injuries... which is much better than a sketch done by a gp.

out of interest, how many times have you (nurseholliday) manually stopped a fall with your head? i get the feeling you may have done it more than once...

what if you just want the lugs done?

best result i've had is by cleaning the chain then lubing up with loads of wet stuff and leaving on radiator overnight wrapped in kitchen towel. Its semi-dry in the morning when you put it on and takes ages before it clogs up again. Dry stuff just doesn't seem to last/work.

Hi,
