Mavic "Ergo Cleat" Alignment System

Having always depended up on the services of foot-guru Bill Peterson (FootFitness) for cleat-alignment and placement services, I'm wondering if anyone knows more about the Mavic "Ergo Cleat" that was featured recently on VeloNews.com. Is this something that US shops will even be able to buy? And does it seem to anyone else like the device can't determine biomechanically-correct cleat placement - it can only replicate cleat placement from one pair of shoes to the next? Thoughts? Details? Insights?



If you know anything about the "Ergo Cleat" beyond what you read in VeloNews, please leave a comment with the details! Thanks.

Mavic Zap

Before the was Shimano Di2, there was:


I don't know how, but I ended up with two sets of Zap wiring looms - one of which is brand-new and still in the original box. Lol. An old discussion of Mavic electronic shifting, here.

UPDATED (Sept. 11): Tired of reading about doping and looking at pictures from 2006? Do you have Mavic Zap componentry? Or a complete Zap-equipped bike? Willing to share photos for publication (attribution not necessary, so you can remain anonymous)? If so, leave a comment and I'll be in touch. I'm happy to publish any and all Zap-related photos. I'm not willing to sell my Zap looms though, unless the offer is ridiculously rich. If you DO have a Zap-bike, stay in touch, though, and when your system eventually fails...haha, just kidding. Send those pics though!
