The foot plays a crucial role in transmitting the power generated by the lower limbs to the bicycle's wheel. Achieving an optimal balance of foot positioning on the pedal ensures that 100% of the power is efficiently transferred. The cleat, which connects the rider to the bike, must be precisely aligned under the cycling shoe to ensure this power transfer. idmatch Foot Fitting enables you to accurately position the cyclist’s balance point directly under the shoe sole using a laser indicator. This system makes it easy and effective to align the pedal axis with the foot’s balance point. The app provides cleat positioning suggestions by analyzing the biomechanical movement of the foot and its dimensions through just three simple measurement steps. Idmatch Foot Fit is available exclusively for users with Idmatch tools. If you own an Idmatch Footkit and need the registration code, please contact us at support@idmatch.cc.
