Sometimes my toes go numb while I’m riding. How can I solve this problem?

The most common cause of numbness is restricted blood flow to the feet, which can be caused by shoes, shoelaces or toe straps that are too tight. Loosening laces and straps often solves the problem. If this doesn’t help, you may want to consider foam insoles or front-ended orthotics. They can provide relief by redistributing pressure on the ball of your foot.

If you’re wearing cycling shoes you may need to adjust the placement of the cleat.
