Leg Length Shim - Universal 3-Hole
The FORM modular leg-length shim is compatible with all 3-hole road cleats. It includes a number of innovative and useful features:
- A curved shape to match the shape of the sole of a cycling shoe
- A chamfered front to facilitate easy clipping in, particularly when shims are stacked
- A “pinning” system to connect multiple shims or FORM wedges together
- Cleat position markers to help with cleat alignment on the shim
- Made from impact-resistant nylon to reduce damage due to repeated clip-ins
Leg length shims are used to increase the effective leg length on a shorter leg in cases where a cyclist suffers from a leg length discrepancy. Signs of a discrepancy can be:
- Overreaching on one side at the bottom of the pedal stroke
- The pelvis tilted or the rider leaning to one side of the saddle in order to retain connection with the pedals through the bottom of the stroke
- One leg feels under-extended whilst the other feels just right
Assuming the rider's position is correct, and their legs have been assessed to have a discrepancy, the issues above could be solved with the use of leg length shims. Shimming, with the correct amount of rise, can create a more equal leg extension, stabilise the pelvis and lead to a smoother and more controlled pedal stroke on the shorter side.
