An improved pedal/cleat assembly provides a float range that is easily and precisely adjusted. The pedal/cleat assembly includes a pedal assembly incorporating a forward cleat retainer and a spring-biased rearward cleat retainer, and it further includes a cleat assembly that defines forward and rearward projections sized and configured to engage and be retained by the respective forward and rearward cleat retainers. The cleat assembly includes a first cleat body that defines the forward and rearward projections, and it further includes a second cleat body configured to be attached to the underside of a rider's shoe and to be secured to the first cleat body in a manner that allows limited rotation relative to the first cleat body about a cleat rotation axis. The first cleat body is free to rotate by an angular amount that is controlled by a pair of set screws. This provides a pedal float that is easily and precisely adjustable.
