I have a new pair of Keo classics and there seems to be some vertical play, for want of a better term. I have the normal float side to side however when I pull up on the pedal stroke there is a slight lift and click in the mechanism.
I've clipped the shoes in without me in them and it looks as if there is some play on the front part of the cleat, where the cleat slips in before you push down and it secures at the back. It's only a mm or 2 but is feels shitty and is a bit frustrating.
What I want to know is if this is normal? I've never used Keo's before but have used atacs for ages and while they have more float they seem a lot more rigid when pulling up. This doesn't seem right to me as I bought road pedals for better power transfer, not worse.
