"I started riding bicycles at the age of 16 with a passion and vigor that instilled a life-long practice. As the years went by, cycling became as much of a part of me as the air that I breath and the family I love. There have been times of triumph and times of humility. Needless to say, the many aspects of cycling and its accompanying lessons have forged me in to who I am today. No, I am not a pro…but at times I’ve been known to catch them off guard. Not too long ago I was afraid that my reputation for coming out of the woodwork was compromised.
During this last winter injuries and genetics conspired not only to bring my competitive edge to an end, but my mental state as well. If I can’t ride I get a little…well more than a little crazy. After several months of physical therapy my caretakers came to the conclusion that my feet were the root of the problem. Ankles weren’t in-line with knees; knees weren’t in-line with hips and so forth. At this point I sought the expertise of those who had invented the Cyclesole program. After generous TLC included in the custom foot beds and bike fit I was back on my bike. My first ride with this system was amazing! No knee pain, no locking of my hips, and MORE POWER! After being on the couch from February till June I thought that this season was a wash. Luckily my new bike fit and accompanying foot beds expedited the recovery process. After two months of careful recovery I was able to reacquire my status as Jeff “Off the Couch” Dengel during the High Cascades 100 mile MTB race. Now cross season is just around the corner and there is no doubt in my mind that these new tools have given me what I need to be competitive again."

"During the past 12 years I have tried nearly every fit and footbed system on the market. I've done custom fits, custom shoes, inserts, orthotics...the list goes on and on. In fact, my first ever professional fit and footbed was done by Scott more than 11 years ago (I still have the "original" footbeds for posterity sake). What's interesting is I always end up coming back to Scott's footbeds and fit process, because they always deliver the best mix of improved power and unparalleled comfort. In fact, after 4 years of wearing custom cycling shoes I recently came back to the new and improved Cyclesoles system and have been very, very impressed with the results.
To give you an idea of how finicky I am, and how good the system is, all you have to do is think about my most recent fit and footbed process. After years of trying to figure out how to properly adjust for my 10 mm leg length difference (all located in my left femur) Scott and I were able to devise the perfect approach by leveraging a new pair of shoes and the new Cyclesoles footbed and fit process. The crazy part is we did the fit and footbeds on the eve of Elite Road Nationals! The next day I raced for more than 107 miles without a single issue, hot spot, or sore muscle, and I felt more balanced on the bike than I had been in several years. For me the proof is in the performance and Scott's process continues to deliver performance rider-after-ride, year-after-year."

"I'm really pleased with my custom footbeds. Scott really knows feet and cares about what he does, which really shows through in his product."

"With the Cyclesoles footbeds you made for my cycling shoes Monday I rode 100mi from Bend to Cultus Lake and back Tuesday. This included two climbs up Mt Bachelor. For the first time ever I did not have toe numbness after riding over 30mi.
My feet definitely have “issues” and make it difficult for this 65 year old riding 4000mi a year. This is especially significant with the amount of climbing I typically do on our local hills near Palo Alto. Thank you for taking the time to address my cycling issues. I highly recommend your fitting and inserts for anyone putting in significant miles on the bike."
