I finally gave in & purchased some shimano shoes & pedals. I have been very happy with my flats for as long as I can remember, but I thought I'd experiment.

I have tried for about a month now, & my left knee does not like it at all. I've attempted to change cleat positioning, but no improvement. The biggest issue is unclipping. It twists my knee in just the wrong angle. Even on the loosest setting.

Clipless pedal choice

Hi there

I've got a new bike on order and it doesn't come with pedals so I need to make a choice about what clipless pedal to get for it.

I currently ride using Shimano M520 SPDs and they have worked fairly well over the last year or so. However I seem to be pulling out of these pedals more frequently now even with new cleats and more tension dialled in. Perhaps the pedal mechanism is wearing away?
