SIDAS FOOTBEDS AND CYCLEFIT
The foot-shoe-cleat-pedal interface A cyclist's feet are the most forgotten and neglected part of their bodies. We shove them into often ill-fitting cycle-shoes, then proceed to transfer all our power 13,000 times (on an average 2-hour ride) through a surface area little bigger than a couple of first class stamps. As a consequence hot-foot, pain, cramps, instability and power-loss are all too common.
THE BIO-MECHANICAL CHAIN
We all have very distinctive feet, consisting of 28 bones (our feet have 25% of the body’s bones in them) and 27 muscles, controlling 33 types of possible mobility. And whatever is happening deep within our shoes, in our feet, has a massive chain-reaction all the way up our bodies. How we walk, sit, stand and therefore pedal starts with our feet. It is virtually impossible to achieve a powerful and efficient interface with the bike until the feet are stable and comfortable. Our feet are the foundation of posture, good and bad. A cyclist’s feet have very little self-correction opportunity as they are tightly strapped and ratcheted in to a stiff shoe clamped to a fast-turning lever. No wonder so many of us feel that our feet are unstable, or constantly shifting for position.
CUSTOMA Sidas Conform'able custom footbed is a highly personalised interface between the weight and power of your body, and the sole of the cycleshoe and pedal. A custom footbed can dramatically influence comfort, stability and power. Extra re-reinforcement can be added further to reflect an individual's foot shape.

The French are uniquely obsessed with Podiatry. Sidas and their medical research arm 'Podiatech' are currently leading the way in practical Sports Podiatry. Sidas/Podiatech. were best known for years for their pioneering work with correct foot posture and support for skiing. This Conform'able technology is now available to help cyclists of all abilities for the first time. An appointment takes approximately 45 mins - 1 hour and costs £75.00 for one pair of fully custom Conform'able inserts. Call 020 7430 0083 to make an appointment
