I have a curious situation. I can't seem to get clipless shoes (neither shimano spd nor keen clipless sandals) to work with my road standard. Would the geometry have this great an effect in combination with snapping in? This is one of the 96 road standards - a 54cm. In reading Riv Catalog #3 the geo is listed as 73/st and 73/ht (assuming those two angles would be the source of my problem) those measurements are probably true for my bike as well.
Here is the rundown: seat kind of far back. A definite KBPS situation. handlebars about an inch below the seat, yet not too aggressive. clipless for a short ride = ankle tenderness inside of leg, usually one, but sometimes both legs. same bike, just pedals switched to road pedals and toe clips, same ride = no pain. I think this pain/tenderness is caused by the restriction of motion that these pedals have - I am somehow repeating the same movement over and over which leads to an overworked tendon. My question is: how to a probelm solve and find a solution? I want to ride clipless, there really isn't any reason it shouldn't work with this setup. I rode before with the same pedals and shoes on other bikes, no probelms. Would it be the frame? What else should I check? I did some testing and the strain happens when my heel is moved outward away from the bike creating a "pidgeon toed" riding stance. Could changing the cleat angle help this out?
