Then again ... the plastic
Which Keo setup are you using?
The Sprint's have a slightly higher tension, but not by much. I ride some Sprint Laneo's at the default tension, which is fairly low (and maybe even at the lowest setting), and I've *never* come out. In fact, I find them just as difficult to get in to with the modern cleats with the rubber grip.
To put this in perspective, I've come out of SPDs at the most inopportune moments when I was riding brakeless. Ultimately, I wish someone would manufacture a clipless setup that required a ridiculously high angle of rotation for release.
