CUSTOM FOOTBEDS
Most professional cyclist have realized the benefits of custom
footbeds or insoles. Cycling shoes are notorious for lacking support.
Custom footbeds ensure efficient and comfortable contact between
your feet and the pedals.
The footbeds are custom made in our office from an impression
and examination of your feet and lower extremities. In addition,
any structural abnormalities, medical conditions, or cycling injuries
are taken into consideration. The custom inserts are removable
and can be placed in any shoe. This is beneficial if you have
different shoes for your road bike and mountain bike. Professional
cyclist prefer this since they may use several different shoes
during a season, and the brand of their shoes may change from
year to year depending on their sponsors.
The benefits of custom footbeds include:
• Proper alignment of the leg for increased power transfer
• Increased comfort
• Decreased numbness
• Decreased pronation and improved lower leg mechanics
The cost of this service is $200. This includes Dr. Hatfieldís
assessment and the custom footbeds. |
