Never had that happen with Times, Shimano however.........
I guess I should clarify what I meant by "harder"- I meant that as the cleats wear, I have to kick my heel out further to get the pedals to release, the new cleats release a lot sooner and it feels easier because of that. Obviously the release tension itself doesn't change.
