Yeah..Add a bit more relief, then lower the saddles. Make very small adjustments to both

Never insult a man until you've walked a mile in his shoes....That way,when you do insult him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes.
As always jon you have offered sage advice to live by. Thank You for enriching my life.

That should work, but more important is to take the advice to walk in the shoes. . . .

Hmmm... I'm finding that I'm taller than I'd like to be when I walk in those shoes. Should I lower the soles or adjust the laces? When I adjust the laces, I find the shoes make a funny noise, but when I lower the the soles I find it's harder to walk smoothly...maybe I should take them in to the shop for a re-sole. :rolleyes:
