I was having some foot pain, "arch" issues recently (could barely walk).
After visiting the Ortho Doctor today, it was determined that I needed "arch support"
for my left foot (both shoes of course).
As I'm almost always wearing Reebok sneakers, (riding too- yea I know..),
it was pointed out to me how much they flex (big time).
Put some new "supports" in the Reeboks, wow, no pain!! Yippee!
Didn't think about it till riding home, jeez, the bike is shifting, best described as "crisp" and VERY SOLID,
a very different bike! ANY potential vibs thru the pegs, gone!
A very different feeling (good) both up and down shifting, even after eleven years!
For those wearing sneakers as well, might want to wear the correct footwear , supports, or...
