Another problem that many riders don't realize they have is an angular misalignment that require cleat shims or insoles with varus/valgus correction. I see a lot of riders with knees swinging far out or far in at the top of the stroke.
Yes, I needed shims to get my knees straight.

So, do the speedplays have unlimited rotational float? Just curious. I use Keos and have them dialed in really well.
