    Thought it would be informative to the community to see everyones favorite foot positions and why. As I'm learning the subtle nuances of the OW I instinctually know when I get my foot position just right. Will post a photo next time I ride.

    Cheers and safe riding!

    Still riding with my front foot squarely across the sensors which really limit the front foot position. Wondering if anyone rides with the back foot on the sensors to allow the front foot to naturally toe out a little.

    My front foot is angled most times with no issues at all.
    I've had couple disengagement at slower than .5 mph.
    Angled front foot will at least cover 1 sensor.

    @sonny123 I agree. A lot of people have complained that the sensors themselves are too small, and they should be bigger. But I've always argued that the small size is actually a benefit, because it allows you to angle your foot more, and still cover both of them:

    Yep, since we're at the subject,
    I had thought of spreading the pads outward so I have more standing room.
    Just did it and will try it later.
    I thought I could angle the front pad slightly but no wiggling room.
