Damn.....something told me this was a problem that was going to require
spending money to fix. Are the shoes you got still available? I really
don't see any other solution than what you suggest as there is nothing else
that I can think of that will make this problem go away. I wouldn't mind
having a larger platform those, since I find myself something riding
unclipped - like starting off into an intersection, etc. How do the Look
pedals compare to the SPDs in terms of clipping in/out and float?
