Form Bike Fit Cleats | Leg Length Shim MTB Walkable V2 Kit, FS-MTBS2-SK

Leg length shim - MTB walkable V2 Kit
FORM’s patent-pending MTB shims are the only “walkable” MTB shims on the market, and were developed specifically to overcome the issues inherent in traditional MTB shim designs, those being;

• a difficulty when walking or clipping in
• a wobbly and unstable connection to the pedals

FORM's product solves these issues by using:

• 2 parallel tread areas to protect the cleat and add clipped instability
• chamfered front feet which facilitate easy cleat engagement
• two sets of posts/tabs that protrude into the shoe to resist rotation

These shims are ideal for gravel, cyclocross or cross-country MTB riding where a relatively high amount of time is spent in seated pedalling, and are best suited to traditional MTB, gravel, or touring shoes utilising an MTB style (2-hole) cleat.

Usage Criteria
Leg length shims are used to increase the effective leg length of 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
• pelvis tilted or the rider leaning to one side of the saddle to retain connection with the pedals
• one leg feels under-extended whilst the other feels just right

Assuming a rider has been assessed to have a discrepancy, the issues above could be solved with the use of leg length shims. Shimming will create a more equal leg extension, stabilise the pelvis and lead to a smoother and more controlled pedal stroke.

* The V2 shim is compatible with all MTB-style cleats, including SPD, Time ATAC, and Crank Bros.
