BikeFit Cleat Wedges, Shims and Fit Parts
Updated · DrPedal is independent and not affiliated with BikeFit
Which to pick
BikeFit cleat wedges tilt your cleat about 1° per wedge so the pedal meets your foot at its natural angle, and they are what BikeFit is best known for. The brand also makes leg length shims, pedal extenders and the longer cleat screws those parts need. Start with cleat wedges for foot-tilt or knee-tracking issues; add shims only for a measured leg length difference.

What is BikeFit known for?
BikeFit makes the small fit parts that sit between your shoe and your pedal. Your cleat only adjusts fore-aft, side to side and rotation; it cannot tilt. BikeFit’s wedges, shims and extenders cover the adjustments the cleat can’t, and most can be fitted at home with care.
BikeFit cleat wedges explained
A cleat wedge is a thin, tapered plate that goes between the cleat and the sole. It tilts the foot so the pedal meets it at its natural angle.
If your forefoot naturally tilts but the pedal is flat, the foot rolls and the knee often drifts in or out. A wedge can reduce that.
How to set them up:
- Mark your current cleat position with a pen.
- Fit one wedge (about 1°) under the cleat, thick edge to the inside for the usual varus tilt.
- Refit the cleat in the same spot and torque the bolts to the cleat maker’s figure.
- Ride and watch your knee track. Add or remove wedges one at a time.
Wedges come in 3-bolt road and 2-bolt SPD versions, so buy the one that matches your cleats.
Shims, extenders and screws
- Leg length shims: correct only a measured difference, ideally with a fitter.
- Pedal extenders thread into the crank like a pedal, so grease them and torque them properly. See our pedal washers and spacers guide.
- Cleat screws in longer lengths keep enough thread engaged once you stack wedges or shims. For Speedplay 4-hole cleats, BikeFit sells M4 x 0.7 screws in several lengths, including the 13mm pack; measure your stack first.
Which BikeFit part should you buy?
- Knees track in or out, or the outside of your foot feels loaded: cleat wedges.
- Flat pedals or no room under the cleat: in-shoe wedges.
- One leg measurably shorter: leg length shims, plus longer screws.
- Feet feel too close together: pedal extenders.
How BikeFit compares
Some shoe brands build a fixed varus tilt into the sole or insole. That works only if it matches you; BikeFit’s stackable wedges let you set each foot separately.
If an SPD cleat sits too deep in a lugged sole, look at the shims in our cleat hardware guide. For tools to set cleats, see cleat fitment.
BikeFit: FAQ
Which way do BikeFit cleat wedges go?
Most riders' forefoot tilts with the inside edge higher (varus), so the thick edge of the wedge usually goes toward the inside of the shoe. Confirm with a fit assessment or by watching your knee track over the pedal.
Do I need longer cleat bolts with wedges or shims?
Often, yes. Each wedge or shim moves the cleat away from the sole, so stock bolts may not engage enough thread.
Do BikeFit wedges work with Speedplay?
Standard 3-bolt wedges don't match Speedplay's 4-hole pattern, so check that a wedge is listed for Speedplay before buying. Speedplay cleats also need their own screws, such as the 13mm BikeFit screws.
