Thanks for the help. I'm pretty sure that the degree of float for SPD (not SPD-SL) is determined by the pedal not the cleat. I agree that for SPD-SL pedals, or for that matter for Look, road pedals the float is indeed determined by the cleat, not the pedal. I know that Look makes three different cleats with different degrees of float. I'll look into some of suggestions. Thanks. - John
