nope. who knows. Everyone in my family uses the SPD's and they are all doing okay, i am just a timid slow learner.

Thanks for the encouragement Ace!
Mimi, Erik is pretty wedded to SPDs because the less float, the more efficient the pedaling cycle. He tried to make them work for me the best he could, and when they ended up bothering my knees again, I switched back to Frogs, which make my knees happy. I did buy some Quattros to try (more float than the SPDs, less than the Frogs), but just haven't gotten around to them yet. Anyway, I actually loved SPDs and found them easy to use. We keep ours pretty loose. It's just that my knees hated them. If they work for you, great--if not, you can still try Frogs.
