Red (the lowest) is the default. I tried the blue (medium or average) then the green (high). Once I switched to the green, I never had a problem again!
    AllezGirl, I've suffered with the same thing. Thanks so much for the info. I'm buying the green and see if it helps me too! At this point, I will try anything.

    Me too! The blues are good, but I'm still getting some toe numbness, so they're not great

    I also use the Speedplay Frogs, actually have 9,000 miles on them, nothing had to be replaced. I like using a mtn shoe because of the walkability and the frogs were so easy to unclip because there is not spring, just twist and lift. However, should I ever decide to go with a road shoe I would go with the Speedplay Liteactions.

    I also have never had hot foot problems.
