Just got a pair of cx239’s. Not set them up yet but having a play with cleats (Time xpro) it seems that they are going to be very heel in unless turned to pretty much the maximum rotation that the mounting plates allow to achieve a neutral alignment and a normal chainstay clearance.. The holes in the soles are very much ‘duck feet’ angled.
I’m coming from Spesh Torch and tbh I might send the Lakes back and get a new pair of Spesh ones, where the neutral position is nice and centred on the cleat holes.
any experiences ?
thanks
Can't say I've noticed that on my CX239's, I use them with Speedplay cleats but I had no issues getting my usual neutral foot angle (and pretty sure there was plenty of play left to have some heel out but was a while ago I mounted them).
Interesting, thanks, I had a google and there does seem to be a bit of chat about it.
