I just bought a set of Speedplay Zero Chro-Moly pedals, and Im having an issue with clipping in. After putting the pedals on the bike, and setting up the cleats on my shoes, it's ridiculously difficult to get clipped in. I can manage clipping in, but only after a huge frustrating, and leg tiring effort.

Anyone know if this is a common issue with brand new Speedplays that will correct itself after initial wear, or is this something that I need to have looked at by my LBS?
