jeez, I read all the hype and believed they were the best,and worked in mud and all,but, I hate to complain and sound negative but aren't getting good reviews here. I cant unclip with them,asked around and pepes tell me to switch left and right cleat,turn em around backwards,cut the sneaker down(gey shimano ones) and they just dont unclip for beans.any advice appreciated. I'm finding the float on the left one to be the biggest problem and wish i just got shimanos now.

How long have you had them?
The cleats are designed to wear and are a softer matterial than the metal bars. It takes a little while for the cleat to break in. I dont have shoes for mine yet so I havent been able to install mine. You read the manual?

you definetly have to shave down the shimano shoes (i have the same ones, and heikli did it for me with a dye grinder). Then install both riser plates under the cleat, do NOT go 2 dot cleat left, keep it on the right shoe, this gives you 12 deg until release I believe.
