I am sure that my pedal stroke could be improved. I could share with people the data that comes off of my Vector pedals, which I don't exactly know how to interpret. Or how to share for that matter.

I recently moved my cleats back vs. traditional road placement because when descending and standing out of the saddle with pedals level, having the cleat further back seems to provide me with better balance/control and is more comfortable/less fatiguing on long downhills. I tend to ride off of ski lifts primarily, but in some XC sections, I get into trouble.

Being a heavy dude, suspension adjustments and closing off some of the rear travel will help some, I think because I was probably compressing so much that the BB was getting too low.

And I am 5-7 riding a medium MTB frame with a DW-link rear (Ibis Mojo 3)
