Frog cleats

[cosc]

My sidi dominators soles work great with my frog cleats, but I have found other bike shoes soles seem to kick the cleat out. I have cut the soles' lugs down a bit around the cleat and that does seem to help. Some of my bike shoes I've given up on wearing for fear of coming unclipped.

Older cleats will unclip too soon so I have to replace mine more often than I'd like. It sounds like yours haven't had much wear so that probably isn't your problem.

I hope you can get it figured out. The spds don't like my knees either.

I second the suggestion that as soon as you clip in, on the next pedal turn, pull back on the pedal and make sure that your cleat is actually engaged. My Frogs generally produce an audible click when I'm in, but not always, and if I don't hear the click I get nervous and give them that backward pull to be sure. Also (and you probably know this), the cleats engage much easier if you turn your heal out as you push into the pedal. The other thing you could try is backing off on the cleat adjustment screw 1/2 turn. It takes a very small allen wrench, and the screw is lock-tighted in, so either heat it or use a long-handled allen wrench.

I have had my frogs since 2005 in Specialized mtn shoes. I have never had a problem.

Just chiming in with my experience with the Frogs.
