Why a Wedge?

With Wedge(s)added.

Even pressure across the ball of the foot & pedal with correct alignment.

Wedges fill the gap

between the foot

and pedal.

Recent studies show 96% of all cyclists are misaligned in their connection to the bicycle, decreasing comfort & efficiency.

BECAUSE… 87% of people with feet have a forefoot that tilts up & to the inside (Forefoot Varus) and 9% of people with feet have a forefoot that tilts up and to the outside (Forefoot Valgus). ALL conventional pedal systems require a cyclist to connect to the pedal flat-footed. Without correction, this predisposes cyclists to mechanical defects in their pedaling stroke.

Your kit includes:

2 x 14 mm countersunk M5

2 x 16 mm countersunk M5

Remove cleat from shoe and measure length of the existing screws. Add the size of the LL Shim(s) you plan to use to the measurement of the length of

mounting screws to determine the length of new screws that you’ll need.

Most people can benefit from a Wedge, so remember to check forefoot tilt to see if you can improve knee alignment by using an ITS Wedge inside your shoe or external Cleat Wedges. Check each foot for tilt, as they may be different. Use the Forefoot Measuring Device (FFMD) shown below, to easily and quickly determine forefoot tilt and calculate a starting point for the number of wedges needed. FFMD BikeFit Part# 7010101

a. Kneel on a chair, facing the back, with relaxed feet extending over the edge.

b.Place the Forefoot Measuring Device (FFMD) on the bottom of each foot pushing the handle against the heel so the vertical portion is aligned dividing the heel in two equal halves. c.

With FFMD in place, position the top flat surface of the Device (½-circle protractor) on ball of foot. Note angle indicated by the protractor. Repeat 3-times / foot to achieve a left & right forefoot tilt avg. Use this as your starting point for Cleat Wedge usage.

continued from other side...

1.STEP

Mark your cleat position (make sure the marks extend well enough beyond to account for LL Shims to be installed). This will aid you greatly when putting things back together.

2.STEP

FITTING INSTRUCTIONS

If using more than one LL Shim, you may use double sided tape or a dab of glue for plastic, between each Shim in the stack. This will help them stay in place when you replace cleats in the future.

3.STEP

For sizeable shim stacks you may want to use a file or grinder to bevel an angled ramp on the front of the stack to allow easier engagement with the pedal.

4.STEP

Place Shim stack on sole of shoe, place cleat on top & screw bolts into shoes but don’t tighten fully. Adjust the cleat to desired position using marks on sole & then tighten bolts evenly until secure.

SPD Cleat Wedges have a directional “arrow” pointing to the front edge of the wedge. This is the correct orientation for SPD type Cleats. Some of the Cleat Wedge will “overhang” in the back.

a.HINT

HELPFUL HINTS:

b.HINT

c.HINT

Leg Length Shims extend well beyond the front of the cleat, facilitating easy engagement by providing a solid platform. If you catch the LL shim, when clipping in, unweight foot and try the procedure again.
