Level one
A footrest for the working day
The StepSync sits on the floor in front of your chair rather than bolting to it. Its platform is tilted at 10°, so your feet rest at a relaxed angle instead of flat, and you can shift them around through the day.
LiberNovo built it alongside the Omni Gen, and it is the natural pairing if you are short enough that your feet don't sit flat on the floor with the seat at desk height.
Level two
Lean back and put your legs up
The second level is a leg rest that stands up behind the platform. Recline the Omni Gen to 135° or its deepest 160° position and you can rest your calves on it for a proper break from the keyboard.
LiberNovo pairs it specifically with the 160° recline. Because it isn't attached to the chair, you can slide it out of the way when you want your feet on the floor.
Fit
Two platform heights
The platform sets at two heights. Measured at the rear edge they are about 88 mm and 135 mm; the 10° tilt takes the front edge down to about 70 mm and 120 mm. LiberNovo's two sets of figures (3.46/5.31 in and 2.8/4.7 in) are the same two settings measured at different edges.
As a rule of thumb LiberNovo suggests the higher setting for people up to about 169 cm and the lower one from about 170 cm, and quotes the footrest for users from about 152 cm to 200 cm. Add a StepSync Mat on top for a softer, grippier surface.
How to assemble the StepSync footrest
It arrives as a platform, base, support column, height adapters, adjustment knob and leg rest. LiberNovo's own video shows how they go together.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. It is a free-standing footrest that sits on the floor in front of the chair. LiberNovo designed it that way so it gives steady support without moving with the chair, and so you can slide it away when you want your feet on the floor.
Yes. LiberNovo says every StepSync footrest is compatible with every LiberNovo chair; the versions only differ in colour and fabric. The Omni SE and Omni Pro already include a footrest, so this one mainly suits the Omni Gen and the original Omni.
LiberNovo suggests the higher setting (about 135 mm at the rear) for people up to about 169 cm, and the lower setting (about 88 mm) from about 170 cm. In practice, set your seat height for your desk first, then pick the setting that lets your thighs sit level without pressure behind the knee.
It is the second level. When you recline the chair to its deeper positions, you can lift your legs onto it and take a proper break. LiberNovo pairs it with the Omni Gen's 160° recline.
Yes, but it is quick. It comes as a platform, base, support column, two height adapters, an adjustment knob and the leg rest. LiberNovo's assembly video is on this page.
Yes. On the Omni Gen page choose Chair + StepSync footrest and we add a footrest in the colour that matches your chair. It goes in your cart as its own line and ships with the chair.
