    does anyone have toe overlap issues on their bikes?

    I do. But then, I wear 47.

    It is generally not a problem unless:

    1. You're stopped at lights, front wheel askew, turning pedals backwards for good starting position. I've taken my front mudgard off two or three times this way.

    2. Racing CX, trying to squeeze in around a sharp turn, going slowly. Nothing that would throw you off the bike, but you may loose balance.

    It will never happen when going fast, as turning your front wheel to the position where it may catch your shoe would kill you instantly ;)

    FSA K-Force that I had on the Wilier. They won't be getting any road use any time soon so I am putting them on the CX bike. Hoping to have them ready for Sunday. They ain't glued on yet.

    except clean of canyon logos. there seem to be four on the forks of each bike, presumably two on the stem, one on the bars, two on the head tube, and two on the down tube.
    that would appear to be 11 on the front half of the bike. how much does a canyon logo weigh?

    It's ok, they're load-bearing decals, used to add stiffness :pac:

    It is impossible to have too many logos.

    Somewhere deep in the guts of this thread is a Felt (I think) leaning against a tiny shed with about a hundred logos on it. It's awesome.

    You're gluing the wheels on? Jaysus, you cyclocrossers are innovative. Or maybe just weird! :pac:

    I like the low stem on that. How is this done? Do you have to buy the forks that way, or can you cut existing ones down?
