Can anyone make sense of the stuff Shimano say?
I was riding on some SPD cleats that released by pulling upwards on October 11 and broke my collarbone and ruptured my spleen. Mind you, I was pulling up as hard as I physically could, which I would estimate is harder than the median cyclist. I have never had this problem with my Look cleats.
