Pedal /Shoe Noise?

andy h 1

Hi all
Currently i am running Shimano PD AS 520 pedals (Single sided SPDs) recently i have detected a noise which i am convinced is coming from the shoe/pedal interface (when pedaling with reasonable force ,uphill etc) as anybody come across this before? and if so offer any solutions! Very grateful for all replies.

Ermm... what sort of noise?

If a slight squeak, try dripping candle wax onto the contact surfaces, then clip in while not fully solid. It worked really well...

I've got those pedals and have recently noticed a squeaking type noise. Don't think it's anything to worry about but bloody annoying! Might be trying the candle wax!

Yep - soles of shoes squeak on these pedals.
Very irritating - some shoes worse than others.

Only cure is to cut feet off

Or turn up mp3 player... :?

yep had that prob 2 - getting new cleats sometimes solves it but generally i think its a combination of recessed cleat type shoes not interfacing (ooer) well with various pedals.
