MTB Bike fit

[Stephen brown]

Hello

I have been riding 3 or 4 times a week for around a year now (approx 80miles PW), but in the last 3 months I have developed a really severe pain under my foot after about 30mins riding, its around the 5th Metatarsal

I was told a while ago by a fellow cyclist that my Cleat/Pedal/Saddle set up was wrong and I was going injure my knee, so I made some simple adjustments and since that day I have had these pains, I have tried what seems every adjustment and position available by moving all these items about to no avail. I have tried insoles(albeit off the shelf not custom)

I have since spoken with 4 separate shop workers and they all suggest a professional bike fit before anything else

I have swapped back to flats for the time being

I have an MTB and a road bike but for the moment my focus is the MTB as im doing the L2B off road in Sept

Can anyone recommend someone in the Essex area that is a bit of a Bike Fit Guru that specialises in MTBs, I have had 1 person suggested but I know 1 would be only his 2nd client and that worries me slightly

Cheers

I would make the effort to get up to Adrian Timmis at Cadence Sport, along with the fit which will include wedges if needed you hopefully will get the moulded insoles.
