Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of adjusting the position of the foot of a cyclist to reduce misaligned motion and to augment stability of the cyclist whilst cycling. It further provides the devices for use in such method as well as bike fitting methods thereto related. The present invention is based on the finding that a foot wedge positioned under the toes, significantly improves stability and symmetry in the cycling movement. Different from the aforementioned varus or valgus wedges, the foot wedges of the present invention ensure that during the pedalling movement an angle is made between the phalanges (toes) and the rest of the foot, wherein the phalanges are more in dorsiflexion. Consequently, the foot wedges of the present invention have a canting angle from the front to the back (elevated toes) as well as from the outside (lateral side) to the inside (medial side).

Abstract translation: 本发明涉及一种调节骑自行车者的脚的位置以减少不对准运动并且在循环期间增加骑自行车者的稳定性的方法。 它还提供了用于这种方法的装置以及与其相关的自行车装配方法。 本发明基于如下发现：位于脚趾下方的脚楔显着提高了循环运动中的稳定性和对称性。 与上述内翻或外翻楔不同的是，本发明的脚楔确保了在蹬踏运动期间，在趾骨（脚趾）和脚的其余部分之间形成一角度，其中趾骨更多地背屈。 因此，本发明的脚楔具有从前到后（高脚趾）以及从外侧（侧面）到内侧（内侧）的倾斜角度。
