My feet naturally turn out like clown shoes, so all my cranks and seat stays are rubbed bare because my heel kicks in. And the older ones actually have wear on the metal of the frame. You don't notice it when it happens; you don't feel your heel strike something.
I had a bike fit years ago where they put motion trackers on you and all that and the guy didn't mention it as a problem. But when I was a kid my dad was constantly telling me to point my feet forwards.
Wonder if you could have trained your legs into being ‘normal’ by putting increasingly thick pipe lagging on the stays to slowly force your heels back out.
My heels are the unstoppable force. I can't be arsed taking a pic cos it's freezing, but on my cross bike the actual aluminium of the seat stays is worn away. Pipe lagging would have stood no chance!
Really I want my ankles taking off and reattaching properly
