Their response was they had had enough complaints (I read litigation) about the possibility of throwing a heel into the spokes, they decided to design that feature out of their new Frogs. So I ordered up 4 pairs of Magnums and some extra cleats. I was able to ride them for the next 10 years until last year when I had to finally pick a new system. That is why right now I am experimenting.
Curious as other systems don't seem to have that problem and have not tried to design out the inward motion. At one point I was seriously considering the Frogs, but that realization killed it for me. I've been riding Quattros for over a year and a half and I would be hard pressed to find something I liked better.
