Two weeks after starting to use SPD pedals one of my knees is hurting
a bit. The only adjustment I know of (besides the release setting) is
to move the cleat either forward or backward, whichever of the two
sets of screws is not in use.

Rotation. need to get the rest position of your foot right, because even
with float there is a spring that centers the cleat. This caused me
problems when I used spds, but now that I use Speedplay Frogs, it's no
longer a problem.

They do look really nice. I'll look around for them.

If you have a chance to try Crank Brothers Eggbeaters, or any of the
variants, I think you will like them also. They are easy to click into,
hold firmly, unclick easily, and HAVE PLENTY OF ROTATIONAL FLOAT. With
those pedals, if I wanted to adjust the cleat angle, I wouldn't know how to
do it, because the float is so generous.
