bunion- cleat position
I have a slight bunion on my right foot that has been causing slight pain on longer rides....I have been thinking about moving the cleat back to relieve some pressure. Anyone dealt with this before? Any help appreciated......thankyou

OP, moving your cleats is fine, but what you should be thinking about is having the bunion removed. I am familiar with women suffering with bunions for decades before finally having them removed. That just plain crazy. I have never heard anyone say getting rid of it wasn't the right thing to do. Don't let this go a minute longer than you have to.
