hi, just started riding the newer shimano spd-sl pedals.
seems that even though my cleats are secured well in
position on my shoes, there is still the ability for the
cleat to slide sideways 1 or 2 centimeters. i'm not talking
about the small amount of float, i'm talking about the
entire cleat shifting from one side of the pedal to the
other. i would prefer my shoes be as close to the crank arms
as possible without touching, but once i start riding i
notice that no matter what i do the cleats/shoe shift to the
outsides of the pedals, leaving a several centimeter gap
between the edge of my shoe and the crank arms, and yet it's
not the cleats shifting on the shoe. what gives??? thanks
