    Ah... surf board wax? :-)

    Surfboard wax is readily available in these parts. I'll get
    some and smoosh it on the cleats and see how it works.

    It may not be your pedals. I had a squeek that drove me NUTS!!!!! for weeks until I discovered thta it was my shoes rubing against the crank arm. Fixed by a quick cleat adjustment. By the way cleats can squeek too.

    You're right -- I meant the cleats are squeaking against
    the pedals.
