Question Speedplay Frog Pedals not grabbing.

Hey folks. I have a set of the SP Frog pedals that just don't snap in like they are suppose to. I've tried adding a spacer between the cleat & the shoe & this helped a little. These things don't snap in like the road cleated speedplays. With those you know your in...

There's nothing more annnoying than trying to make a climb & your food pops off for no apparent reason. Or pushing down to clip in & not knowing if your cleat has attached. They don't snap or pop to let you know like the SP road pedals do.

I have some eggbeaters that do the same thing. You just don't know if your in or not.

Help or suggestions?

Perhaps I should get the Shimano959's?

The Frog's do not snap in...they more "slide" in. I hear a the click when in. Keep practicing. Great pedals, tons of float.

So get a pair of Times I just dont think the SP mechanism is the wisest thing off road. There was a dude at the local trails last weekend having a $h!t fit over his frogs. It was light mud, nothing bad, and his pedals gummed up. I can clip in when the limestone clay gunk is hard and is clinging to everything. I've never been able to not clip in.
