Notes:

Update: I'm now riding a Selle Italia Flite since I ate shit while trying to do backwards circles and knocked my Aliante off it's rails with my knee cap. My knee cap has recovered but my Aliente still hasn't. If anyone knows how to put a saddle back on it's rails, please let me know because my ass misses that saddle very much.

And I'm still looking for people to mash with in Southeast Michigan.

yeeea

Submitted by Vman on 03/16/2009.

can totally relate with the toe overlap issue.

i ride a 52cm knuckle too. thinking of switching over to eggbeaters or some other solution to eliminate that problem.

but i have been told/it has been my experience so far that overlap is only an issue at lower speeds so *shrugs*

Yeah..

Submitted by Kyle No 27 on 03/17/2009.

..I think you're right. The tire doesn't come anywhere near my foot while turning at any speed above slow as shit. And I definitely hope my toe doesn't find that tire while strapped in going fast. EEEKKKK. But yeah eggbeaters might work, or if you want to stayed strapped I'm thinking smaller clips might work. I moved my foot back on the pedal without being strapped in and my toe cleared the wheel. So yeah, I might try that.

..I don't like it one bit. It makes for some embarrassing falls too.

Oh yes. On my old langster, I had really bad toe overlap. One time I was talking to a girl and then had to get going and almost flipped over my bars right in front of her. It was pretty lame hahaha.

Thankfully, my affinity has no toe overlap. Never again shall I be undermined by the dynamic duo of toe overlap and me not paying attention!

Super nice! If your

Submitted by terrible_one49 on 03/16/2009.

Super nice! If your Bareknuckle was not so small, I would ask if you wanted to do a trade for mine! Haha!

How do you like that seat? I road it for awhile, but prefer the Fizik Arione over the mountain bike Aliante. It's quite abit lighter, longer and I find it more comfortable after it breaks in.

Thanks man..

Submitted by Kyle No 27 on 03/17/2009.

...but I couldn't even trade you if my bike wasn't mini. Your BK has too much style. It wouldn't even be a fair trade.

But as for the Aliante, so far so good. It's like the cheapest version they make so I'm sure it can't compare to the better models but I don't have anything to complain about so far. I've only rode it for a few miles but it's already way more comfy than my San Marco Rolls. That thing hated me. I was originally going to go with the Arione but I found this Aliante for dirt cheap and I think the smaller size looks better with my small frame. I'll have to do some longer rides and then let you know how much I like it. ha
