The Frogs that I've looked at seem to be strictly for clipping in.

Thanks.

I'm having some knee "tenderness" Don't want to call it pain exactly, that would admit that I'm "old" and or falling apart because I'm already in physical therapy for torn rotator cuff.
That's why I'm kinda thinkin' about new pedals. I don't think it's the twisting out of the pedal that's bothering me though. I think it's the old runners knee acting up with the increased distance and all those revolutions=torque.
I'm also using low end shimano pedals that I can use with cleats on one side and regular shoes on the other.
Would it help to try a different Pedal? The folks at Terry said it might help to raise the seat a little, and the PT says to do stretching exercises for the gastroc and hamstrings.
