Bought some proper road shoes today. Just deciding cleats. I assume the degrees on the cleats is the amount it takes to move them before you unclip? I can get 0, 4.5 or 9, any recommendations?

With spd-sl i have 6 degrees of float (it is either that or 0)

I have no scientific knowledge to back this up but i reckon no float would give more problems to the knees unless you have your bike position, pedalling stroke and cleat placement dialed in just right. I think some people have problems sprinting with no float pedals too when they accidentally unclip. So i'd recommend float of some kind

Using Look Keo's, was using the Red (9°), but found there was too much movement, have moved to the Grey (4.5°) which feel nicer. If you have Look pedals, these are the ones with come as standard with retail packaged pedals.
