OK, I admit that my cornering experiences are on a geared bike or a motorbike (you can lean those over pretty far in a bend). But I don't believe that riding fixed in London and pedal-strike are really an issue (I'll find out for myself soon enough - bike arrives tomorrow). You might get the odd touch down on a bend with a speed-bump or something but that would be the exception and not the norm at all.
Prove me wrong. Have you had an accident riding fixed in London as the result of pedal-strike in a bend?
