I ride a 51cm Appaloosa and am 5'7" tall on the best of days and have a

execute a tight weave through the access gate to a bike path, and at both
I have a Joe Appaloosa with 50mm soma Cazadero tires on it, Fenders, and no to
overlap at all. My bike is a 59 cm, I’m 6 foot 2. Toe overlap becomes more of
an issue in smaller sized frames however.
