Actually, if you have knee problems, then I'd sugges that you go with SPD-SL red cleats (zero float). Set it right then keep it there.

Speedplay Zeros are crazy adjustable. For road riders who ride 2 to 4+ hours at a time, the flexibility is nice. But, track events are short.

But, even some roadies use zero-float cleats:



...and I'd guess that most most track sprinters do as well.
