Cleat extenders

I know there was some previous discussions on mid foot cleats etc.

Just got some winterish shoes for my commute - same brand as normal pair - but the cleats feel too far forward even at the furthest back available.

I dont need an expensive solution - this is just for commuting - but is there any cheap ish extenders that would move the cleat back a small amount (I suspect just a few mm will make the difference). Or is there any other options.

Look cleats for info.

I think the ones I got were about £30 from Switzerland, but that seems a bit cheap.

Here’s the thread.

My mid foot cleats for Speedplay (summer bike) work very well, as detailed in the thread.

My commuting cleats (winter bike) didn’t really work. I had problems unclipping which I never got to the bottom of and the walkability of the shoes went out the window.
In the end I realised that I could use my SPDs with the two screws in the rear holes and that was enough - tbh I don’t ride the commuting bike long distances so it’s not a big problem.

I’m guessing that Look cleats need 4 screws to attach to the base of your shoe? If so, moving to SPDs might help without being hugely costly?
